The Evermore Funerals Difference

When you go to a coffee shop, you naturally expect the barista who works there to make your coffee. You wouldn't expect someone else in a different coffee shop to make it, and bring it to the shop where you're paying for it. That would just be strange. The same goes for a hospital. If you arrive with a broken collarbone, you expect the staff who look after you will be the staff who work there! How would you react if they brought staff from a local medical centre to work in the hospital? That might seem a bit strange too. You'd want to know why! Whether it's getting a coffee or getting medical treatment, you expect those helping you to actually work at the place you're interacting with . When employees are directly working for an organisation, you know they face a level of expectation and accountability for their work. We think the same should apply when it comes to caring for a deceased loved one. Such an important task should be approached with the greatest care, r...

Recently someone on Facebook helpfully pointed out that some other funeral providers offer a No-Service Cremation package ("Direct Cremation") at prices lower than ours. Our Direct Cremation package is $2,750 . It's not hard to find budget funeral companies offering direct cremations at prices anywhere between $1,150 and $1,999. Those prices sound amazing. Since our package costs a little more, it was thought that our competitors are offering a better deal. But we're not really comparing the same thing. It's a bit like comparing apples with oranges. They are both fruit, and both a similar size . . . but they're not the same! Our No-Service Cremation package has inclusions that many of our competitors don't have. While it's hard to be specific about every budget funeral company, some key differences present themselves: (1) Our package price includes a face-to-face meeting with one of our funeral professionals to complete the necessary documentation, ...

Nowadays, most people are watching what they spend very carefully. Cost of living expenses are always increasing, and it seems that most things are getting ridiculously expensive. While the cost of using Evermore Funerals is significantly lower than most 'big brand' funeral homes, paying for a no-service cremation or a formal funeral might sound daunting. But don't worry! Not only are our quality services significantly lower than most of our competitors, you can be sure that we don't require upfront payments for any of our services! Some funeral companies require upfront payments or deposits to make use of their services - but not us. When someone you love passes away, simply call us and leave all the details to us. We make all the arrangements, meet with you (or arrange things over the phone), do everything you require of us, and after all that, only then do we send you an invoice. Most invoices allow you 30 days to arrange payment, and if you require longer just cont...

Some people have noticed that Evermore Funerals advertises that " we service all areas of Brisbane and Beyond ". Recently a woman on Facebook asked a very good question about that. She asked, "What do you mean by ' beyond '?" She wanted to know what areas around southeast Queensland do we actually service. The fact is, we are willingly to help anyone in south-east Queensland! If you're in this corner of our beautiful state, we stand ready to offer quality, personal funeral care at compassionate prices. Our facility is on the northside of Brisbane, but we cover all areas in and around Brisbane: anywhere from Redcliffe to Samford, and from Kangaroo Point down to Jimboomba. But we are also happy to travel to places beyond Brisbane, such as Burleigh Heads, Beaudesert, Ipswich, Caloundra, Cleveland and everywhere in between. Recently we travelled to Kingaroy to bring someone into our care! However, it's important that you know there are sometimes transpo...

Most people know the price of everyday items. Think about basic things like a loaf of bread, a tube of toothpaste, or a kilo of apples. You probably have a rough idea of how much those things cost. Then think about more expensive items like purchasing a new home in your area, or that nice new car you've had your eye on - you probably know roughly how much those things cost. Because you know how much they cost, you probably know when you're being asked to pay too much. There is only so much you're willing to pay for toothpaste, or apples, or even a new home in your area. But when it comes to funeral-related care, most people don't know much it costs. Because of that, it's hard to know if you're paying too much! Many of the 'big brand' funeral companies charge large fees to provide the services they offer. They are entitled to charge for their services of course, and you are entitled to pay for those services. But what if there was a funeral services provi...
