Funeral Costs and Funeral Packages
All of our funeral service packages include a coffin in the funeral costs. There are also 'General disbursement fees', which are third party costs paid by Kevin Cobbold Funeral Services on the family's behalf.
Funeral Costs and Funeral Packages
Every funeral director must show their prices in the format below on their website so that you can easily compare prices.

Our price for a standard funeral is £1,695.00 plus third party fees (crematorium/burial fee; doctor's fee).

However, we will make these clear at the time of arrangement.
Funeral Services are exempt from VAT, except for press notices, floral tributes and catering.
