A funeral can be either a burial or a cremation. The price of Leverton and Sons Ltd 's basic funeral option does not include cemetery or crematoria fees, also known as 'disbursements', which vary widely across the country.
If you're having a burial you can expect cemetery and grave preparation fees to be between £500 and £20,000.
If you're having a cremation you can expect crematoria fees to be between £500 and £800. Two doctors' signatures are required for cremations (unless the coroner is involved) and these cost £152.
These costs will be in addition to the basic funeral cost quoted above.
