Transport

Final journey in style

White Dove Funeral Home can explain all the options available to you for the funeral cortege, should you choose to have one. In a traditional cortege the deceased in the coffin will travel from the funeral directors in a modern hearse to a location of your choice, via a chosen route or direct to the service venue and then on to the committal location if it’s different. Guest and family members would travel behind the hearse in a limousine, alternative hired transportation or in their own vehicles.

Transport options

Things to consider…

Who will require transport, close family and friends and other guests?
The type and number of vehicles you would like
Who you would like to travel in the cortege
If there is a specific route you would like the cortege to take
Are you having a service and committal in two locations?
The arrangement and display of floral tributes
If you would like a unique specialist funeral cortege with alternative and unusual vehicles

Many people prefer the traditional motor hearse but there are now other alternatives. White Dove Funeral Home can make your funeral more personalised with choices including horse-drawn hearse options, 4×4 Land Rover, motorcycle, ‘Only Fools and Horses themed 3-wheeler’, pink, silver, white or poppy decorated hearses, a double-decker bus, a trike, a vintage lorry and VW Campervan. Please talk to us about all the options available or something specific you would like us to try and arrange for you.
