About the company

Good Cremations is an Australian family-owned company that specialises exclusively in direct cremation. It provides direct cremation services in Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria, and states that care is handled by its own team rather than being outsourced through a call centre.

One of its Client Care Leads, John Sankey, moved into the funeral industry in 2016 after a career as a touring drummer.

They were fantastic from start to finish. Very easy to deal with and very quick response time. They made the whole process extremely smooth and took care of everything. Price was great too compared to a few others. Thanks for taking care of my Uncle Greg.
