If you are considering hiring one of our VWs for a funeral we need to know where in the country the funeral is taking place in order to calculate the cost for you. If you have a funeral director in mind please would you let us know who they are. Please make sure that if you wish to book with us that you check our availability because we are generally unable to do more than one funeral per day due to the distances we cover. We will pencil a date in the diary for a maximum of 24 hours while you make arrangements, after this time we assume that you do not require the hearse and it will become available again so please keep us informed.

An enquiry is not considered a booking. 

IMPORTANT: To book our service we require a booking form (download below) from you / your funeral director to confirm the details of the funeral. We will respond with a schedule, invoice and a copy of our terms and conditions.

Please ensure that you have received our confirmation by email as it contains information about your booking. No booking will be confirmed without our completed booking form, this is to ensure that mistakes are not made. The details given in our confirmation schedule are what we will work to on the day so please double check it and advise us of any change of plan.

If you do not have confirmation schedule from us then you may not have made a booking with Volkswagen Funerals.  If you are unsure please feel free to double check with us. 

All bookings are made on a first come first served basis and there is no obligation to book.
