Natural Burial Funeral Transport

From simple farewells to exuberant celebrations of life, Land Rover Hearse compliments a natural burial funeral.

Committed to the environment, natural burial areas may be woodland, meadow, orchards, sustainably  managed farmland or a combination of them.

A natural burial is an environmentally sustainable, and often less expensive alternative to existing funeral practices where the body is returned to the earth to decompose naturally and be recycled into new life. So, if you love the countryside and care for the environment a natural burial might be for you, as it offers you a real choice to do something positive at the end of your life.

The elements of a natural burial

Here are some of the more important elements contained within a natural funeral which have made this type of ceremony become more widespread:
• Minimal impact on the environment compared to other funeral types
• An environment is created which is not visually definable as a burial ground
• Coffins are made from natural, sustainable materials such as environmentally friendly willow coffins
• No marking or personalising of the grave with a permanent memorial, although memorial plaques and small stones are sometimes permitted

Personalising a woodland funeral

There are many ways to create that personal touch.  It can be a very simple farewell, with no fuss, or it can be an exuberant celebration of life. Some natural burial sites offer live webcasts meaning you can stream the service for people who cannot come. You might also want to consider including unique funeral transport, such as a Land Rover Hearse, the perfect vehicle to compliment a woodland or rual burial.

With people of all faiths and beliefs welcome, a woodland funeral doesn’t need to follow any specific conventions or traditions so long as you stick to the unique guidelines of your chosen site.
