7 Steps to Organising a
D-I-Y Funeral

with the Brisbane Funeral Co. 

Australia's First Funeral Company to offer the complete  Do-It-Yourself solution for all funeral types!

​

To compliment our open and transparent pricing model, we want to offer all our families a

Do-It-Yourself option where you are in control of the funeral planning. 

-

This service includes all elements of organising a funeral service, to applying for death certificates, Medicare and Centrelink notification and a lot more.

-

It doesn't matter if it is a Direct Cremation, a Full Service or a Memorial, our online tools allows you to do it yourself in your own time.  It also means you don't have to feel pressured to select the best coffin, and or spend ridiculous amounts of money on it because you feel that is what everyone wants, and or that's what the funeral director or employees is incentivised on.

-

Below are 7 basic steps to understand how it all works, but just know we have everything covered for you, and nothing will happen accidentally, we are by your side every step of the way and we are here to support you a little or a lot.

​

If you wish to see us face to face, we are of course more than happy to come and meet with you and the family to go through everything, step by step.
