More families are asking a simple question:
“Is there a more natural way to say goodbye?”

At Kings Funerals, eco-friendly options allow you to honour your person while caring for the environment, without compromising on meaning, dignity, or personal choice.

From shrouded farewells and natural materials to our electric hearse and sustainable practices, there are many ways to create a service that reflects both your values and theirs.

Because a farewell can be gentle — on the earth, and on the people who matter most.

There’s no right or wrong way to say goodbye.

Cremation gives families the flexibility to choose what feels right, whether that’s keeping your person close, creating something personal, or taking time to decide.
At Kings Funerals, we’re here to guide you through your options with care and clarity

Supporting palliative care means supporting comfort, dignity, connection, and the people who walk beside families through some of life’s most difficult moments. 🧡

During National Palliative Care Week, we’re proud to stand alongside the incredible healthcare workers, volunteers, patients, and families who make compassionate care possible every day.

At Kings Funerals, we see firsthand how important kindness, conversation and human connection can be, not only at the end of life, but throughout the entire journey.

Thank you to the dedicated teams across our region, including Barwon Health and all those involved in the campaign, for the care and support they provide to our community.

🧡 Show your heart for palliative care.

When someone dies, the stories people share often become part of how they are remembered.

Our online tribute pages allow family and friends to share memories, leave messages of support, and watch funeral webcasts from anywhere.

For many people, reading the memories shared by others can bring comfort during the early days of grief.

With so much conversation around fuel and uncertainty, it’s natural to wonder what this might mean.

Behind the scenes, the funeral profession is planning ahead, because this work is essential, time-sensitive, and centred on dignity and care.

But the most important message for families is this:
It’s going to be okay.

At Kings Funerals, we’re here to ensure every person is cared for appropriately and every family is supported. No matter the circumstances.

Funerals Your Way.

There are simple ways to reduce travel when planning a funeral, especially when distance or circumstances make things more difficult.

From arranging things remotely, to livestreaming the service, or choosing a time that allows more people to attend… There are flexible options available.

At Kings Funerals, we’re here to help you find what works best for your family, without adding extra stress.

Funerals Your Way.

With recent conversations around fuel availability, some people have asked how this might affect funerals.

Behind the scenes, there are a number of vehicles involved, from transfer vehicles through to the hearse on the day.

At Kings Funerals, we’ve been planning ahead.
With hybrid and electric vehicles, and hearses designed to carry more people, we can often reduce the number of cars needed.

Most importantly, families can feel reassured, the care of your person will always remain our priority.

Funerals Your Way.

Today, we pause to remember and honour those who served, and those who never returned.
Their courage, sacrifice, and service continue to shape the community we live in today.

Lest we forget.

Recently, we introduced one of Australia’s first fully electric hearses to our fleet here in Geelong. Based on the Mustang Mach-E, it represents a step toward more sustainable, modern funeral options-while still honouring tradition.

And now, it’s time for a proper introduction…

Meet the Etive

Our Mustang hearse already has a little recognition to go with it.

This weekend, at All Ford Day, we were awarded the Secretary’s Selection Award, presented by Chris Sager.

This is a stand-alone award, separate from the judged categories, making it an especially meaningful nod.

Safe to say… our Etive is making quite the entrance
