It’s a fair question, and here we’ll outline why using an independent funeral director through eziFunerals can help you save time, money and unecessary grief. Our members are Australian, family owned and independent funeral homes.

Traditional Family Values

With family values at the forefront of their minds, our member funeral directors put themselves in the customer’s situation and listen to client needs, rather than upselling a set package.
With a family-focused business taking care of your funeral affairs, you’ll receive the kind of attentive, caring treatment that will lead to a more personalised and meaningful funeral service.
Fair and Flexible Service
Larger funeral brands owned by publicly listed companies (InvoCare and Propel Funeral Partners) typically provide rigid packages that tie the customer into certain commitments. Their sales people may not be able to change even the tiniest of details because their “hands may be tied”. They work for shareholder profits.
Not so with independent funeral directors listed with eziFunerals. These professionals pride themselves on being fair and flexible. Given that they’re free of corporate control, they can often move things about to help you create exactly the kind of funeral you’re looking for, no matter how unusual.
