What does a funeral cost?
NSW Government guidance puts the state-wide funeral average at AUD $5,000–$8,000. Actual costs can be higher or lower depending on the service, the location and the funeral provider. Use this as broad background information, not a personal quote.
NSW funeral businesses are expected to provide an itemised quote showing goods, services, disbursements and the full payable total before an agreement.
