Costs

Helping you reduce the cost

We understand that a funeral is costly and can be unexpected, so here at Crabtree and Son we are sympathetic to the needs of our families and will plan every funeral individually to suit your own budget, large or small.

The larger funeral directors have to answer to their shareholders, we answer to you. Because we are a relatively small business we can keep our costs low and guarantee to beat any price you may get from any other firm in Leeds or Bradford, especially the large conglomerates. As well as the large funeral firms charging you far more than any independent, their service can often be very poor and impersonal. After discussing your wishes we will provide you with an accurate estimate, with no hidden surprises and of course the cost of a funeral is dependant on your individual requirements and circumstances. Please remember we are always prepared to discuss our costs. It should not be a matter of embarrassment for any family to discuss costs with the Funeral Director when making arrangements

If you require help with the funeral costs, then contact the social fund and you could be eligible. We can help you with the relevant paperwork and put you in touch with the right people.

If you are looking for the best price in Morley then please get in touch and we can discuss any prices with you on the telephone or in person if you wish.
