At Faithful Friends we try to tailor our services to your needs which is why we have such a wide range of services and why we do not have a standard price. You select the services and products that you require and pay only for what you want.
Burial costs cover the opening and closing of the grave, a function common to all types of burials. Burial costs depend on the area of the cemetery you choose: in the Bushland Setting this may be the only cost you have to pay.
Bushland burials:
Lawn Cemetery Burials:
All pets buried in the Lawn Cemetery are buried in caskets.
For the range of caskets available, see the Products page.
Graves with Headstones:
A separate area is set aside for burial sites with headstones.
Tthe cost of burial is $299.00, which includes the individual slab with deep footings to prevent sinking and decorative coping and marble chips.
Headstones start from $799.00.
In this area each pet is buried in a casket. You can choose from a range of styles that are shown on the Products page.
A Crtfiicate of Burial is issued and this shows the location of the grave.
A $75.00 maintenance fee is charged on all burials in this area, which covers the first three years' maintenance contract and is renewable.
Cremation:
Individual cremation means just that - your pet is cremated alone in our purpose-built pet cremator,
not together wilth others. We issue you with a certifucate to verify this. The ashes you receive are the ashes of your pet and
your pet alone. Because we operate our own crematorium we are able to provide this guarantee without havein to rely on any one
else in the process such as a crematorium operator somewhere else.
Indivudual cremations start at $132.00 for a small pet with your ashes returned in a scatter bag. The cremation cost depends on the pet size and type.
An urn or polished wooden
box will cost around $66.00.
Communal crematon is for those who simply want to know that their pet has been treated with respect and not
disposed of by the local council contractor. The pet's ashes are not kept separate or prepared for return in the same way as with
individual cremations so the ashes cannot be returned. They are scattered in the cemetery gardens.
Collection of Your Pet and return of Ashes:
Collection from your vet or from your home is free.
Return of the ashes of your pet following an individual cremation is also free. We will deliver the ashes in a containter of your choice to a street address anywhere from Oakey to Warwick and from Dalby to Gatton. Outside of that area the ashes will be returned to by courier delivery. The cost of this service is included in the cremation cost.
We have a range of containers available for you to keep your pet's ashes safely. See the Products page for details including prices.
