Our Approach
Our tailored service approach ensures that your loved one is celebrated, their life remembered and a beautiful, personal and loving tribute is delivered to make saying goodbye just a little easier. Life should be celebrated, we make sure that your loved one is celebrated as you say goodbye.
A family funeral service should honour the departed in a way that pays tribute to their life. At McCartney Family Funerals, our Brisbane funeral directors are experts in planning memorials for Queensland families, regardless of culture or religion. When considering how to plan a funeral service that will honour your loved one, we advise you to take the time you need to develop a plan that is personal and fitting for the deceased. The funeral planning process can feel almost overwhelming during the initial grieving period after a death occurs which is why it is not uncommon to delay the funeral slightly to allow those closest to the deceased to process their grief before they begin making plans for the memorial. When planning a funeral service, you become part of our family and we become part of yours. We believe in providing a funeral home that is respectful of your family’s wishes, taking the stress out of planning the memorial service and allowing you the freedom to focus on what is important, your family.

Funeral Service Prices
It’s not possible to put a price on your feelings at such a time but you will need to consider what you’re able to spend on a funeral before you can make any specific arrangements. If money is not an issue, that’s fine. But if you need to calculate the costs in advance, you’ll find clear funeral pricing information on our website and we will be happy to provide you with any further details you may require on request. There are no regulations governing how funeral directors in Brisbane operate but we adhere to the Queensland Government’s Funeral Industry Code of Conduct, which means we always provide clear, transparent pricing for the services we arrange.
A cremation in Brisbane will normally be considerably less expensive than a cemetery burial but if your loved one has already purchased a burial plot or expressed a desire to be buried rather than cremated, we can help you make all the arrangements at an equitable price. Whichever option you choose, we will make sure that you are aware of all the costs involved and will help you to organise a fitting ceremony within your budget if desired.
Our funeral prices start from $2,795 for a no service cremation & $7,595 for a simple burial service in Brisbane with various other packages available to suit your family’s budget and wishes.
