Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. The cremation can take place at any crematoria of your choosing in England and Wales.
A minimum payment is required to appoint Variety Funerals™. We do NOT store your card details. When you pay by credit or debit card the card details are input into the Worldpay system which is PCI compliant meaning your card details are secure and can not be viewed by anyone.
When you pay for a product or service using your credit or debit card you are protected by the Visa and MasterCard guarantees which means if the product or service is not provided you will get your money back.
No. Our Variety packages include the coffin type in the Lower Price.
No. The wooden coffins we use are mass produced which means the cost is cheaper due to the economies of scale achieved from coffin manufacture in large quantities.
The coffins Variety Funerals™ use have gained Funeral Furnishings Manufacturer’s Association (FFMA) Certification, meaning our coffins are approved for cremation in the UK.
Cardboard coffins are manufactured in smaller numbers and to support the weight of the deceased the cardboard has to be very thick; for these reasons cardboard coffins are more expensive and not included in Variety Funerals™ cremation packages.
It is mandatory for the deceased to be cremated in a coffin. This is because cremators are constructed to hold the deceased in a coffin. It is not possible for the deceased to be cremated in a body bag or shroud; a coffin must be used.
