Before you commit, ask for:

An itemised written quote - collection, storage per day, coffin model, transport, paperwork
The total price, not the package name
Confirmation that death registration and the burial order are included
If they sell funeral policies: their FSP number (verify with the FSCA on 0800 110 443)

Typical costs: basic funeral R10,000–R15,000 · burial R25,000–R50,000 · cremation R6,000–R10,000. Full cost guide

Thinking about a policy?

Many parlours sell their own funeral plans. Before you sign anything - here or elsewhere - it's worth understanding waiting periods, cash vs service benefits, and the FSCA licence check that protects you from schemes that never pay.
