Bare was extremely good to us at the time of my fathers death. They were very professional and able to answer any questions we had from prior to engaging them, to taking up the contract at his death. The staff were compassionate, caring and informative throughout the whole process, from arrangements to our funeral wishes. They corresponded with us personally and via email. At no time did we feel pressured to make a split second decision or within short time frames. Their website links were informative and very helpful in answering questions and giving guidance to things required to do. Our experience throught the whole period was execptional. I would highly recommend Bare as a funeral company.

Absolutly awsome service, BARE made everything so easy, the dashboard was easy to navigate and use and even provided a step by step guide. Thank you so much for making this difficult time easier. Staff were always on hand just a call away if I needed assitance. I was updated by phone or txt (my choice) when ever a crucial step in the process occured. Thank you so much BARE.

Losing loved ones is a devastating time in your life.We didn't know where to start the process for this journey we took.We contacted some different places and first of all it does help if they get the name right of the person who dies and yourself.Bare as a business stood out in front by a long way.Holly was just amazing to deal with especially as my mind and my brothers were lost in the fog.She guided us and was a tremendous help in all ways.Every person at Bare were truly wonderful.I would not do this any other way and only with this company.Just so happy with the service down to the delivery of my dads ashes.Thank you BARE...you helped in these dark times

I had no real understanding of the process that need to be followed when my mother passed away. From the moment I contacted them, the team at Bare were unbelievably helpful and empathetic. They explained each step along the way, continually updated me even when the update was that nothing had changed, and went out of their way to ensure I was ok. They gave me options but were never pushy. During what was obviously a deeply troubling time for me their help was invaluable and I'm glad I decided to avail myself of their services. Thank you to everyone involved at Bare.

My mother recently passed away at age 90 years. Most of her contemporaries were already gone, her remaining siblings were overseas, and her grandchildren and great grandchildren widely dispersed. This made a traditional funeral logistically very difficult. She and we, elected for a Bare funeral and cremation. The process proved to be thorough, trouble free and efficient with guidance and supplementary information available if at any stage is required. Our relatives were equally impressed. We highly recommend this service to anyone in need of it.

the Bare team that looked after me were both kind and supportive. They held my hand at the worst time of my life and guided me through a very sad and difficult process. They showed sympathy, respect and honored my beautiful partner and our wishes, reaching out with continual support throughout and well after my ordeal. Thank you to all especially Kayla, you were my rock and my safe place when I needed one.

Bare provide a compassionate and helpful service at a very good price. They have an easy to use online portal, which made it easy to use since I was in a different state. The best thing about dealing with them was that I had one person who was my contact all the way through the process. Elle was proactive, kind and helpful. This was such a blessing for me during an incredibly difficult time, it felt like she was holding my hand all the way through. Since my positive dealings with Bare, another family member used them and also had a good experience. 100% would use again.

I would highly recommend Bare Funerals. They organised everything for us when our mother passed away. We were kept up to date on each step that really helped. The portal was excellent showing us also each step and also has a check list for things that we needed to do.

From the very start of my engagement with Bare I felt supported, heard, and encouraged. No question was 'silly', no tears brushed off. I felt that I no longer carried the burden of the unknown in how to go about farewelling my sister in a loving and appropriate way. The fact that the Bare support person (Mady) reached out every day in the beginning was incredibly helpful. I knew she was just a text or call away. Mady was there when we had an hour with my lovely sister - providing support and encouragement. The excellent portal set up meant that I could access it and make decisions as I went. The useful tips and check-list provided on the portal are excellent. A family friend and I took advantage of the complimentary 45-minute virtual meeting with a lawyer from Bare Law, and it was incredibly helpful. At no stage did we feel we were being directed in a certain direction against our will and, again, no questions were regarded as 'silly'. I honestly cannot speak more highly of Bare Funerals, and to have this one 'light' in a very dark time in our lives, cannot be underappreciated.

My Review of Bare Let me start by saying this: no matter how prepared you think you are, you're not. We knew Mum was in her final hours, and we were fortunate enough to be with her when she passed. Even so, I thought I would have more time to make arrangements, but I didn't. My first call to Bare was just 5–10 minutes after Mum passed away, and the lady I spoke with, Kate, was simply outstanding. The empathy, kindness, compassion and professionalism she showed were second to none. She didn't just explain what information I needed to provide—she genuinely helped me through those first incredibly difficult moments after losing Mum. I'll never forget that. From there, Bare handled everything with exceptional care. They coordinated directly with the aged care facility, managed every arrangement seamlessly, and kept me informed throughout the process. During one of the hardest times of my life, they removed so much of the stress and uncertainty, allowing my family and me to focus on what mattered most. Losing a loved one is never easy. I can only imagine how much more overwhelming it would be if the loss was sudden and unexpected. Having a team like Bare supporting you through such a difficult time is invaluable. To everyone at Bare, thank you. Your compassion and professionalism meant more to my family than words can express. I sincerely hope I don't have to go through this again for a very long time, but if I ever do, there is only one place I will call—Bare.

Our mum was 102 plus 9 months, very important at her age to count the months. We chose Bare as mum wanted a no fuss cremation with a celebration of life later. . Our first contact with the Bare staff reassured us we were onto a company who listened, were supportive and showed us great empathy and we had the confidence that when the time came all we had to do was ring them. We contacted them on mums passing and treated with respect and informed they would be with us in or around 2 hours to collect mum. Communication at this time is paramount and they guided us through every step. The care and dignity was exceptional as we escorted mum out of the nursing home. We were kept informed all the way through the process feeling valued and cared for. We would recommend the services of Bare, they are transparent with their prices, and very affordable making a difficult emotional experience easy to navigate. Thank you management and the team at Bare kind regards Doug & Kay

Mum always wanted a simple experience when her time came. No big funeral, no coffin viewing but just a beautiful gathering of her family remembering her life. I had heard of Bare Cremation and contacted them when I knew her time was close. From that first contact and every touch point through the journey I could not have been happier with the kindness care and understanding shown to me and my family. The information was clear, open and transparent and provided all the information required. The cost was a big reason for going with Bare but to be very honest it was the service and outcomes that exceeded my expectations. The thoughtful follow up was also appreciated very much. I would highly recommend this company for any type of end of life care your family would like. Blessed at this difficult time of life/death. Thank you, Bare Cremations, from myself and my family.

No one is ever prepared to organise a funeral for their loved one even if you know it’s coming from an illness. I was very fortunate for my brother in law to put me in touch with Bare Funerals. The initial contact was Saya, then when it happened my first contact was Melinda to start the process and she informed me I would have a lovely lady named Rebecca to get me through the journey. What an absolute pleasure dealing with these ladies and Rebecca you knew every answer to my questions before I even asked. The support from you will be remembered as you making my time as painless as possible. I also wish to thank Nate at the viewing who knew I cry so loudly sorry Nate but your professionalism and nice nature was everything someone could ask for.

We used BARE Funerals for my dad’s passing, and I honestly cannot speak highly enough of them. From the very first phone call, every staff member we dealt with was empathetic and kind, gentle in their approach, and completely genuine. There was never any pressure, no upselling, no hint of being pushed into anything. In fact, the package we originally enquired about was more expensive, and they were the ones who suggested a less costly option that still met all our needs. That alone says everything about their values. What really stood out was how supported we felt. Someone was available literally 24 hours a day, and every message or call was met with quick, thoughtful, compassionate communication. In a time when your brain is foggy and your heart is heavy, having people guide you step by step, calmly, clearly, and with real care, definitely makes an enormous difference. I’ve already recommended BARE to so many people because our experience was the opposite of what you often hear about the funeral industry. They put us, and my dad, first. No sales pitch. No pressure. Just authentic, human support when we needed it most. I applaud the two young men who founded BARE. They genuinely live their philosophy, and it shows in every interaction. I’m deeply grateful for the way they helped us through such a difficult time.

Just a short note to say thank you all so much. My Father passed on the 20th April this year and after seeing the advertisement for Bare on TV I decided to ring them. I couldn't have been happier with the results, my Dad was an undertaker for most of my adolescent life so I thought I knew about death and grief but until it becomes personal you have no idea. All the staff I spoke to at Bare were really caring but not "over the top" if I needed anything all I had to do was ask, no problems at all. Both my family and my Dad were treated with respect and for that and all the help provided all I can say is thank you all so much. I have recommended Bare to two of my friends already and will continue to sing their praises until they take care of my cremation and look after my family. I know they will be in good hands.

My sister recently passed away on the side of the street in queensland and I had no idea of who to ring. I had seen Bare advertised on TV so living in Tasmania I decided to call them. Little did I know that was the best decision I would make as they were fantastic and very compassionate. Right from the gecko they were informative and very caring and stayed in touch through the whole process. They were in touch constantly even a couple of weeks after the cremation to check in on how my other sister and i were coping, just to let us know that we entitled to 4 grief counseling sessions if needed.

I never had to ask Bare what’s next, it was told to me first by phone then put in my port folio to view as I wish. Every step was given that I had to complete that made it very easy and fast. My son was as cared for in the at most respect from taken from the coroner, bare funeral home then the crematorium.

A simply amazing service, and team, and worth 6 stars if I could award them. At a very difficult time in my life, I was, at all times, treated with courtesy, kindness, empathy and respect, by everyone I interacted with. My Arranger, Bronwen, was amazing; kind and gentle, helpful and informative, and nothing was too much trouble, thanks Bronwen. Everything is handled online, and I was kept appraised of what was happeneing at all times. It was easy to provide the necessary information, to look after my dear departed mum. There was no hard sell or upsell, but were options gently offered, if I wished to use them, and the cost was, as advised. I also received some free legal advice from Bare Law, which helped me a great deal, and I really appreciated. I would be (and have been) very confident, happy and comfortable recommending Bare to anyone asking, or in need of this service; they will not let you down, and will support you very well, in my experience.

When my father passed away earlier in the year we were faced with many options for cremation, many of them quite expensive. My elderly mother had attended many recently and was not looking forward to hosting the usual crematorium send off. A family member suggested Bare and we reached out. The staff were all wonderful. Supportive and understanding although we never met in person. Tim was amazing and made the experience much less stressful than we were anticipating. The first person we met in real life was Susie who delivered his ashes to the house and she was so warm and caring. We were able to have a wonderful celebration of life at my father’s favorite club, hosting around 200 friends and family. This would not have been possible if we had gone with one of the more expensive cremation options.

My dealings with Bare occurred during the saddest period of my life. Fortunately, Bare had the right people and processes in place that ensured their people were able to empathise with my situation. An important thing for me during this period was the ability of Bare representatives to treat my wife with the level of dignity and respect that eased my mind through the whole process. For anyone who may be going through this painful period I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Bare service. The individuals who dealt with me were wonderful and kept me informed from the beginning and beyond the service and return of my wife when all was completed. Since then I have received follow-up contact from Bare to ensure that any support I personally needed was readily available. Thankyou Bare.

No pesky sales in suits grasping at your grief to lure you to waste on what you dont need or really want. The online platform, the before, during and after service, tips and checklists, along realistic pricing, was spot on. GO Bare Team, thank you!

I would like to sincerely acknowledge and express my deep gratitude for the exceptional care and support provided by Elle during one of the most difficult times in my life. From the very beginning, Elle demonstrated remarkable compassion, empathy, and professionalism while assisting with the care of my mum and supporting me through my grief. Throughout the entire process, Elle made what could have been an overwhelming and distressing experience feel seamless and manageable. Her calm and reassuring approach removed much of the stress and uncertainty, which was invaluable while I was in such a vulnerable emotional state. Elle was consistently kind, patient, and understanding, particularly during our conversations when I found it difficult to hold myself together. She allowed me the space to process my emotions while gently guiding me through the necessary steps. Her thoughtful follow-up emails and genuine check-ins meant more than I can adequately express, they restored a sense of faith in humanity and showed how much of a positive impact a caring individual can have, even as a stranger. I would also like to recognise the wider team, all of whom I found to be equally supportive, respectful, and compassionate in every interaction. The dignity and care shown in returning my mum into my care will never be forgotten. This organisation has demonstrated an exceptional standard of service, allowing me to focus on grieving and honouring my mum without the added burden of navigating complex formalities. I am truly grateful for the kindness and professionalism shown throughout. Thankyou Elle & Bare

Bare are very supportive and really help you. I have been involved with organising catholic funerals, but my mother-in-law wanted a very simple cremation. The quote I received from Bare was detailed with a definite price, whereas a Funeral Director gave me an over the phone quote saying "it could cost x but also could go up". As a daughter-in-law trying to help the family, the Bare quote was straight forward. The process after the passing of my mother-in-law was amazing. Bare contacted me via phone and email. I was given a check list of things that needed to be done, including contacting Centrelink. The staff are wonderful and are great listeners and organisers. Everything I raised with them, they were able to address. They also had genuine concern for my welfare (which was amazing). Another great thing was being able to complete a tribute then upload it to Facebook- wow! At the end of the process I have reflected that the family and I were NEVER overwhelmed with any aspect of my mother-in-law's cremation. I recommend Bare to any person - family member, in-law - the whole process was easy, comfortable AND comforting. Thankyou to all the staff.

I used Bare for my husband recently. They were absolutely amazing, respectful and supportive. I gave my husband's details to Bare about six weeks before he passed and i received several emails,checking on my husband's health, and my own well-being. The communication regarding all aspects of the retrieval of my Darling's body, to cremation details and delivery of ashes was amazing, and so respectful. In fact, nearly four months later I have been reminded by email that I can still access free counselling and simply need to reach out if I want to talk to someone. I would highly recommend the Bare team. Thank you for your respect, sensitivity and efficiency.

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the team at Bare Funerals for the care and compassion they showed during the cremation of my father. From the very beginning, everything was handled with such professionalism, respect, and kindness. During such a difficult and emotional time, they made the entire process feel simple, dignified, and stress-free. Their communication was clear, thoughtful, and always delivered with genuine empathy. Knowing that my father was treated with such respect gave our family great comfort and peace of mind. The service provided was beautiful in its simplicity and exactly what we needed. I truly appreciate everything the team has done for us and would highly recommend Bare Funerals to anyone looking for a caring, respectful, and seamless experience during a challenging time. Thank you again for your support and kindness. ❤️

The experience I had with BARE on the passing of my wonderful Mum was exceptional. BARE handled each step of the process from initial phone call to delivering my Mum's ashes in a professional and compassionate way. Being able to complete paperwork online at home when it suited me was excellent. Everyone I dealt with at BARE from Elle who was my dedicated arranger to the person that picked my Mum up when she passed to the person that delivered the ashes was professional and compassionate. There were no hidden costs and it was cheaper than using a traditional funeral home. BARE was so much better than the traditional way of arranging things, cheaper, flexible and compassionate.

this was our first experience using a funeral company, we were referred to Bare by a family friend, I had looked into some other larger business and was shocked by some of the pricing structures. We decided to proceed with Bare and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish, our dedicated person was so professional and caring was was available for any questions that we had. The dashboard they set up for you is a great tool to use and in the comfort of your family home which took away alot of the stress, the checklist was also invaluable in helping us to check we were covering all bases. We had cremation service only but I am sure the other options they offer would be just as good. My dads ashes were also hand delivered back to us by a bare representative. I would have no hesitation in recommending this company from a cost perspective and service. Well done to the whole team and thank you. A J

At our time of need, on the day of our dad’s passing, we really weren’t sure where to start or who to call. We decided to reach out to Bare Funerals. I’m really glad we did. They were fantastic to deal with from start to finish. Professional, courteous, sympathetic and caring. And most of all, helping us, and guiding us with what we wanted. There was no upselling or pushing us in a direction that wasn’t right for us. Just good old fashioned, simple and helpful service. All the way through from that first day of despair, through to the after care service. We would highly recommend Bare Funerals to anyone that is either unsure of what they want, or want something simple, modern and appropriate to their family needs.

My father's death was sudden and just before Xmas. He died at home and whilst waiting for a nurse to officially confirm I had to find a funeral company straight away. I completed online quotes with Bare and another company. Both used the same crematorium. The service with the other company was terrible. i chose them only because they called back first and sounded pro-active. I wish I had gone with Bare. I would advise anyone to research this while your parents or loved ones are still alive and check reviews, most importantly speak to the company. Bare were more attentive, empathetic in their follow-up calls in the whole time I was dealing with the other company.

My mum was in her mid 90’s and deteriorating. With a view to preparing as best we could, we started speaking with local funeral services. What we found appeared to be ‘cartel’ type pricing (all the same) and all with extras. Then we tried Bare. Genuine customer service , sincerity and competitive pricing. I spoke with caring local staff every time I needed too and they followed up when required every time. The passing of our near and dear is difficult , arranging the final steps in this process shouldn’t be. Bare does it very well, they are a business and a service I would highly recommend.

When my husband passed away in 2023 I contacted Bare. Our daughters decided they wanted to go with another funeral arranger, which cost well over $6,500.

I cannot thank them enough for their kindness in what was a very sad time. I can highly recommend Bare. Thank you.

The process of organising the funeral arrangements was efficient and well supported by professional staff.

Bare Funerals stood out firstly because someone had mentioned I would save money. What I didn’t expect was just how much different they would be. Yes saved money but they empowered me to make decisions in my own time and within reason. We looked at short cuts to save money where possible but still wanted the very best for my mums last hurrah. Our dedicated consultant Chelsey was so lovely and checked in regularly. I was not inundated with calls and decisions and everything went according to plan. Thank you Bare for being there at the worst time, to ease the burden without compromising the quality funeral mum deserved.

I stumbled across a Bare Interview in a magazine/newspaper some years back and thought I would file that to memory because at the time was such a forward thinking approach to the whole process involved with losing a loved one. I dreaded the idea of having to ever use a traditional funeral parlour having seen first hand the narrower paths on offer. I’ve sat through many funeral services where it was the same service, the same ‘hit parade’ of funeral songs and bible verses or readings. Sadly, my brother was diagnosed with an aggressive terminal cancer diagnosis in 2025. I remembered the Bare article I’d read and decided to really look into what they had to offer. From the moment I ‘dipped my toes’ into the website, I felt no pressure to choose Bare, but found everything on offer made sense to us, was at our family’s discretion and timeframe and above all else, we were not treated as a number - we mattered. From beginning to end, geniune kindness, support and care was given to us from the BARE team and our Senior Arranger Kay Saneaha. Kay was available whenever we needed her either by phone or email. The dashboard assigned to our family allowed us to track what was happening every part of the journey, and held such valuable resources available at our fingertips whenever we needed. Communication was considered, heartfelt and we felt like we and our loved one mattered. There was no pressure to do things by a certain timeline and we were encouraged to look after ourselves during this period. Such a streamlined and professional service that helped the grief of losing a precious loved one that little bit easier. Thank you BARE, we cannot praise you highly enough and will never forget your support and kindness.

After a recent family bereavement, we were recommended to explore the cremation (and associated) services offered by Bare. I have to say that in a time when many public services are unreliable and questionable, Bare has certainly proven to be the absolute exception. Our experience from start to finish was exemplary. The deep compassion, knowledge of processes, efficiency and courtesy demonstrated by the entire Bare team was outstanding. Our support advisor Jake was amazing and led us through every step of the process with sincere compassion and detailed knowledge of the process. At a time when we were dealing with severe trauma and grief, the Bare team relieved us of the majority of the administrative and organisational tasks allowing us the time to grieve and support each other as a family. As a result of our experience, the majority of our large family have agreed that when the time comes, Bare will take care of us. To the entire Bare team, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We will certainly recommend Bare to our extended base of friends and family in the future. What a wonderful, personal and affordable concept.

We chose Bare as our cremation provider as we wanted a professional service with as little complication as possible. Being able to attend to everyting online made things even smoother, as we lived quite a distance from our father's hospice. Our father did not want a formal funeral, just a cremation and a life celebration a little further down the track. So knowing that he was in good hands, and would be personally delivered to us quickly after the cremation was a burden lifted. Bare staff were careful, supportive and dignified in all their communications, never making us feel pressured. We would highly recommend their services to anyone needing an excellent and simple cremation service.

We did not want a lot of fuss and cost when mum died, and the process was very simple and took a load off our minds at a difficult time. Communication was very clear and timely and the staff at Bare were really kind and respectiful. I would recommend very highly.

From the very first phone call to the final arrangements, Bare Cremations exceeded our expectations in every way. Every team member we interacted with was genuinely caring, kind, and compassionate, making a difficult time so much easier. Even when it came to legal advice—something I expected to be just a conversation about fees—their support went above and beyond. I was walked through the probate process with patience and understanding, and they even offered help if I chose to handle it myself. I felt truly supported every step of the way. We are incredibly grateful for their guidance and cannot thank them enough for their exceptional service.

Our Sister didn't want a funeral but also didn't want her two boys to go through any more trauma than losing their Mother age 72. I found the Bare website, read their reviews, ethics and thought these are the right people for my Sister. From the first phone call to Yvette who set up a dashboard online, where we could look at anything we needed to do, to Tim our concierge who kept us totally informed all the way via emails, phone or text, to Chris Bares driver who delivered our sister home to us. Beautiful, beautiful people who gave my Sister her dignity through her final journey, I cannot say thank you enough. From the sad end of my Sisters life to the return of her ashes to me, Bare were fantastic, not one error, never missed a beat. I have already recommended Bare to Friends and I now know who I wish to speak to when my time approaches. Kindest Regards, Phil McLaren.

Bare cremations is such a wonderful alternative when your grief is so raw. I couldn’t handle all of my mums final moments on the phone or via email which is lovely when you don’t feel like talking to people or sitting in a funeral home. I was handled with kindness and respect and kept informed every step of the way. Everything was managed for me and the process and the entire process was seamless. When mum arrived home I was so surprised at the entire thought and presentation Even that was a blessing for a very exhausted grieving heart. Would highly recommend.

The Bare staff were all great to deal with. Communication was friendly, helpful and efficient. The online portal was also simple to utilise and stepped us through the required steps. This was particularly helpful, as we have never been required to oversee the arrangements for the loss of a loved one before. Nothing was too much trouble and the process was stress free.Cannot recommend Bare highly enough.

In October 2024, I turned to Bare Funerals following the passing of my husband, Philip. During one of the most difficult times of my life, the team at Bare Funerals provided not only professional but also deeply compassionate support, guiding my family and me through every step of the process. From our initial contact, it was clear that Bare Funerals prioritizes empathy and care. They took the time to listen to our needs and offered personalized services that reflected Philip’s life and our wishes. The team handled everything with the utmost respect and sensitivity, ensuring we were always informed and at ease. Although we chose a cremation without a formal ceremony, Bare Funerals made sure that Philip’s remains were handled with great care. They personally delivered his ashes to us once the cremation was complete, which provided an additional level of comfort during such an emotional time. I cannot express enough how much their support meant to me during this incredibly difficult time. Bare Funerals made a challenging experience more manageable, and I will forever be grateful for their guidance, professionalism, and thoughtful care. Thank you, Bare Funerals, for your exceptional service and for helping us honor Philip with such dignity.
