I highly recommend Bare. The entire process was seamless, from the excellent and transparent online pricing and service descriptions through to the caring people, the gentle prompts and guides, and the wonderful care they took of Mum. I was able to choose the updates I wanted, such as knowing when she was cremated, and the memorial service was everything I’d hoped for. The Bare legal team were super helpful and explained the probate process in a great way for me. I’m really pleased with the service

A couple of years ago myself, husband and mother in law all prepaid our cremation with Bare as we didn’t want the fuss, expense and expectations of a regular funeral. In the last month we sadly have had to say goodbye to mum and Bare were wonderful from that initial phone call after she passed until we were hand delivered her ashes. Thank you to the Bare Team particularly Holly and Lydia 🙏

I could not fault BARE when my wife died in March 2025. All arrangements were made quickly and in a caring manner with excellent follow up. I literally did not have to do anything except collect my dear wife’s ashes. BARE I also there at any time offering sound advice n all matters associated with the death of a loved one. I am at peace knowing that my remaing loved ones will have the same wonderful service when it is time for my departure. Gordon Williamson Ballarat Vic

From the very beginning the staff couldnt do enough to explain the process they were understanding and thoughtful and just wonderful with every step of thw way a BIG THANK YOU TO YOU ALL

My brother prepaid his cremation with Bare, and when he passed I didn't have to do a thing. Filled out a few forms and Bare did everything. I was so thankful at such a sad time.

Prepaid my parents Funerals couple of months later Mum passed away made our life so much easier that everything was organised from the time Mum was picked up to the time I picked up her ashes. They were fantastic great communication all the way letting us know what was going on. Highly recommend.This service

I’ve used this service with both of my parents now and I’d have to say they are the most amazing people to have look after your loved ones, the care they provide is truly a blessing! I know it’s not a service people would think to recommend but I definitely would! They take their time when communicating the steps and everything in between, and the hand delivery of the ashes is done in such an honouring way, extremely grateful for them, Thank you BARE for looking after my parents and also myself during such a difficult time x

From my first call, to questions & follow ups, every single person I spoke with could speak with knowledge about my case & its progress. An amazingly kind, calm and dignified experience

The service and attention we received from the whole team at Bare Funerals was nothing but exceptional. They assisted and guided our family through the whole process and made the service and experience everything that we wanted. There is no hesitation in recommending Bare Funerals to everyone we know, and when the needs arrive we will definitely place ourselves in their hands again. Thank you to the Bare team for helping us to say goodbye in a respectful and meaningful way.

I was very impressed with the service i received during this emotional journey. i have nothing but praise for the team i had handling my husbands funereal arrangements. Michele, Christine, and Izzy were so compasionate and went beyond with their care. Highly recommend them

We did not want a lot of fuss and cost when mum died, and the process was very simple and took a load off our minds at a difficult time. Communication was very clear and timely and the staff at Bare were really kind and respectiful. I would recommend very highly.

Bare truly does it differently. Thinks outside the square in providing a truly custom, unique memorial. The whole process was seemless. The guidance and assistance with every moment, every step is truly phenomenal.. i cannot speak highly enough of Bare. Do yourself a favour and check them out.

I was very impressed with the service that Bare provided and would definitely recommend them. My husband passed away after 7 distressing weeks in hospital, and it was wonderful to deal with with the lovely staff at Bare after that experience. A special thanks to Jessica o’Neil who kept in touch regularly, helping us with the planning of the memorial and choosing a lovely celebrant for the service. Everyone was so patient and empathetic for which I am very grateful.

We are very grateful for the care, respect and compassion that was shown by all the staff at Bare after the death of my mother. The incredible support before, during and after the funeral was very much appreciated. The whole process including the very individualised funeral service and the returning of the ashes to my home was seamless. Thank you to Jess and Natalie in particular. I highly recommend this great company to take all the funeral stress out of a difficult time.

We lost both our parents within 2 x weeks of each other a couple of months ago. Unfortunately mums passing, cremation etc was a nightmare, a horrid experience (not with Bare) and then dad passed 2 x weeks later. We had a prepaid service for dad with Bare Cremations as he was approaching 91 years and knew it wouldn't be long for his celestial transfer. Bare were caring from the get go, professional immediately after his passing and have been absolutely wonderful to deal with since. The staff are magnificent during your time of utter confusion. They were even compassionate with us whilst dealing with mums passing and that stress. Highly recommend their services and fab staff.

We couldn't have done it without Bare. The family decided to produce our own service with slides and speakers from the family. We chose the slides, selected the entry and exit music, and other music to be played in-between speeches. Bare organized it perfectly, including the handouts to attendees. Also, since we have many family and friends overseas or who couldn't attend the service, the ability to have the video available for months online was invaluable. But above all, the knowledge, competence, sensitivity and kindness shown to us during this difficult process where we had a funeral within 10 days of my mother's passing was very much appreciated, all with minimal intrusion. I really couldn't recommend them more.

My husband passed away recently and he had prepaid his cremation with Bare Funerals/Cremations. I cannot fault the service I received from the first contact with Bare after he passed to picking up his ashes and receiving the Death Certificate. Bare arranged everything with compassion and sympathy, and gave me all the information i needed. I was allocated a staff member who supported me throughout the process. I would highly recommend Bare Funerals/Cremation company and having it prepaid made it so easy for us, his family.

We are so grateful to the team at Bare Funerals for their care, professionalism, and support during a very difficult time. They made the process of planning a funeral feel manageable and respectful, and we truly appreciated their guidance throughout. A special thank you to Mick Bourke, who led the service with such warmth, humour, and authenticity—it honestly felt like he was one of dad's old mates. The way he spoke to dad, as if he were right there in the front row, brought a sense of comfort and lightness that we will never forget. His delivery was absolutely perfect for us. His words brought comfort, lightness, and even a few smiles, which meant so much to all of us. One moment that really stood out was a beautifully delivered, beer-themed prayer that captured the spirit of dad perfectly. Thank you again to everyone at Bare for helping us create such a meaningful and personal farewell.

From the very first phone call to the final arrangements, Bare Cremations exceeded our expectations in every way. Every team member we interacted with was genuinely caring, kind, and compassionate, making a difficult time so much easier. Even when it came to legal advice—something I expected to be just a conversation about fees—their support went above and beyond. I was walked through the probate process with patience and understanding, and they even offered help if I chose to handle it myself. I felt truly supported every step of the way. We are incredibly grateful for their guidance and cannot thank them enough for their exceptional service.

Our Sister didn't want a funeral but also didn't want her two boys to go through any more trauma than losing their Mother age 72. I found the Bare website, read their reviews, ethics and thought these are the right people for my Sister. From the first phone call to Yvette who set up a dashboard online, where we could look at anything we needed to do, to Tim our concierge who kept us totally informed all the way via emails, phone or text, to Chris Bares driver who delivered our sister home to us. Beautiful, beautiful people who gave my Sister her dignity through her final journey, I cannot say thank you enough. From the sad end of my Sisters life to the return of her ashes to me, Bare were fantastic, not one error, never missed a beat. I have already recommended Bare to Friends and I now know who I wish to speak to when my time approaches. Kindest Regards, Phil McLaren.

Bare cremations is such a wonderful alternative when your grief is so raw. I couldn’t handle all of my mums final moments on the phone or via email which is lovely when you don’t feel like talking to people or sitting in a funeral home. I was handled with kindness and respect and kept informed every step of the way. Everything was managed for me and the process and the entire process was seamless. When mum arrived home I was so surprised at the entire thought and presentation Even that was a blessing for a very exhausted grieving heart. Would highly recommend.

Bare organised a fantastic funeral for my Father. Sensitive and caring, honest and upfront with the service and costs associated. The day went smoothly and the website and uploading of information was easy and they were there to help talk me through everything. I would definitely recommend Bare when looking for a Funeral Director for your loved one.

I would not hesitate to recommend Bare Funerals and Cremation services. The service, support and coordination/guidance they provided following the death of my mum in arranging her funeral and cremation was much appreciated. From outlining the packages available including costs, to the personal dashboard including to do lists, timelines and next steps was very helpful. The thoughtfulness of staff and personal touches they provided I felt were above and beyond.
