About us
About Us
We are a funeral service dedicated to providing the cheapest burials possible for those who might not have been your favourite people (that slightly racist grandparent or parent who was a little too strict), why let your inheritance go to waste on a fancy send-off? Or maybe you're just frugal (cheap) — we don't judge, we just dig (or burn).
Some have accused us of misusing government grants and loans to fund our operations. We are happy to confirm that these accusations are 100% accurate. In fact, it's one of the key reasons we can keep prices so low. The other reason? We simply don't care — because caring costs money.
Dignity is overrated. Savings can be forever.

🚧 Talks with BP — Getting Ready for the Future! ⛽
We are in advanced talks with BP to achieve the cheapest possible burials for all.
The oil industry is famous for digging massive holes around the world. Since our biggest cost is digging holes, why not use theirs for burials?
BP has struggled with oil spills in the past, where they once tried using hair to stop the oil spill — unsuccessfully. However, new research suggests whole bodies could have actually plugged those spills better!
If your loved one's remains help stop an oil spill, BP will pay YOU to bury them. Turning grief into profit!
Imagine a funeral where YOU get paid! That's what we call a Win-Win situation!

- Rolled-up carpet — Soft and cosy, though it may look a bit dodgy if you're ever dug up.
- Wardrobe — Just remove the shelves, and you're good to go.
