Repatriations

W. A. Truelove & Son Ltd is a recognised expert in the complex field of repatriation funeral services.

Airline tariffs are normally based on the gross weight of the coffin, thus making it difficult to provide our clients with an accurate estimate prior to delivery to the airport. Fortunately, we are now in a position to offer fixed charges to many destinations worldwide. This allows us to provide a more accurate estimate to the client regarding the cost of the repatriation upon any application.

Our aim is to arrange repatriations as rapidly, efficiently and sympathetically as possible.

Our charges have been formulate to include four different options of coffins and caskets. However, should you wish to chose any other coffin or casket from our range we will be pleased to quote you upon application.

For repatriation from the United kingdom, if required, we can arrange for a funeral service in Church prior to the departure to the Country of destination.

If you require an estimate, please do not hesitate to contact us on +(44) 020 8642 8211 or email us.
