You’ll receive complimentary Bare Aftercare as part of all services.
Unlike many other funeral providers, we believe that care should extend beyond the funeral service. That’s why with any Bare Cremation, Memorial, or Funeral service, you’ll receive our complimentary Bare Aftercare package. This includes support for post-death administration, wellbeing, and more.
The hard parts of funerals are easier with Bare.
Free aftercare for all Bare families.
Our care goes the distance – because the hard parts of death don’t end with the funeral. We’re here to make the post-death journey that little bit easier for you with a range of ongoing support.
Frequently asked questions.
How do I know you’re reputable?
What coffin do you use for cremation?
For cremation-only arrangements, we use either a basic cardboard coffin or an MDF coffin, which is made from compressed wood fibres. At this time, we do not offer other coffin options for our cremation-only service.
Is the advertised price of a Bare Cremation the final price?
Yes - the advertised price of a cremation with Bare is the final price. We're aware that the funeral industry has a reputation for hidden fees and charges. With a Bare Cremation, the price you see is the price you pay. We don't charge extra for weekend or overnight transfers, oversized coffins, pacemaker removal - or anything else. To get a price for your location, simply hit the "Instant Quote" button and know that the price you'll see is the price you'll pay.
Are you able to collect anytime?
Yes we collect anytime day or night. Sometimes we will be dictated by the location of collection, for example certain hospitals will have dedicated collection times that we must adhere to. Needless to say, we will always collect as soon as possible – and there are never any out of hours hidden fees.
How can I be certain I will get the correct ashes back?
We take this responsibility very seriously, and the process to ensure this happens is closely regulated. Your loved one is cremated individually. They, the coffin, and the ashes receptacle are all labeled and checked and verified. Your loved one’s paperwork accompanies them throughout their care journey and is checked multiple times to ensure their identity is recorded correctly.
How long does it take for collection to happen?
The timing of collection depends on where the passing occurs. If your loved one has passed away at home, we will aim to be there within 2 hours. If they passed away at an aged care facility or hospital, we will collect as soon as possible, pending the hospital or age care home availability. If your loved one is taken to the Coroner, we will collect after the Coroner enquiry has been completed, which can take more than a week.
What paperwork do you need to perform the service?
The paperwork requirements vary by state. We will provide you with all documentation that needs to be filled and, where helpful, guide you through it's completion. We also give you the ability to complete these documents online, so you don’t need to find a printer, and can start, stop and resume at your own pace. The documents are used for authorisation to cremate, transferring a person into our care from an institution (such as a hospital), and personal details for the registration of the passing.
How are the ashes returned?
This will vary with each state, so please check with your arranger on the specific options available to you. In the majority of metropolitan areas we can hand deliver the ashes at a day and time that is convenient for you. We can also mail the ashes or you can collect from the crematorium directly depending on the location. Please note we require a signature for all return of ashes to ensure they are successfully delivered.
We've had the privilege of serving more than 30,000 families.
Every week, hundreds of families let us into their lives, sharing stories of their loved one, and entrusting us with their goodbye.
Here are some of their stories.
