what our customers say about our loving, caring & supporting team

The support, knowledge, caring and professionalism provided to us when we were lost, was amazing, especially as Mum’s church funeral was in Brisbane and her burialin Toowoomba during the floods.

The flowers were breathtaking, and not having to choose a coffin was such a relief – the one included was perfect.

Michael Hutchinson’s pricing was also extremely affordable. We are so grateful to Ian and his wonderful team at Michael Hutchinson Funerals. Our sincere thanks.

HELEN GOLTZ





Ian and his team were very professional and excellent communicators when dealing with my mother’s funeral arrangements.

Responses to all our questions were prompt, as was all information we requested.

Paul Chiddick was a very thoughtful and sensitive celebrant, who was warm, kind, and sincere in his entire approach to us during this difficult time and he did an outstanding job.

Gower Family





A few months ago, our beloved mother passed away, leaving us overwhelmed with an existential crisis.

A friend called M.H.Funerals and gave my number for contact. Ian called me outside business hours and guided me through the process to organize a prompt cremation according to Hindu traditions. He kept me informed of every step and went out of his way to facilitate certain requests at no extra cost.

It was caring, dignified professionalism at its best. Words cannot justify the gratitude we feel. Also a big thank you to Rama for his kind and respectful input. God Bless.

Why Our Costs Are So Economic?

Our modest prices are achieved by expecting less profit per funeral than many other funeral directors, certainly not by skimping or providing inferior service.

We always show you our full prices, we will not be vague or try to hide any additional costs.

You will find our prices listed throughout the website from our most basic, no-service cremation in Lawnton for only $1290.

We also provide a list of additional fees and options that may impact on the overall cost of the funeral.
