What do coffins cost?
The truth is that no matter what some families are asked to PAY for a coffin, the actual COST of most coffins is around $350 + GST.
Cardboard (Bio Board) coffin costs $150 + GST
Richmond Maple (veneer) coffin costs $350 + GST
Wicker Basket or Pandanus Leaf coffin costs $500 - $700 + GST
Solid timber Enviro coffin costs $900 + GST
Polished solid timber coffins cost from $2350 + GST upwards
Choosing a coffin that is in keeping with the way a person lived is important.
For example, most environmentalists choose cardboard or wicker!
Equally important is not to over-spend on the coffin.
The low cost coffins don't look 'cheap' by any means - for instance a cardboard coffin looks amazing when it has been decorated with flowers, pictures or memorabilia.
Conversely, timber veneer coffins (cost $350-$565) actually look very similar to sold timber (from $2500 upwards).
