Grace in Grief: The 23 Best Funeral Services in Singapore

Funeral services in Singapore are a blend of tradition and modernity, reflecting the rich cultural diversity of our city-state. With a unique mix of Chinese, Malay, Indian, and Western customs, Singapore funerals are a solemn yet fascinating affair. 

The Singapore government also regulates funeral homes to maintain high service quality and ensure the dignity and respect of the deceased. Let’s take a look at some of the best ones that meet the country’s meticulous funeral industry standards.

How much does a funeral service cost in Singapore?

Funeral costs in Singapore vary based on length and religious considerations. Longer services tend to be more expensive. Funeral arrangements range from extremely cheap to expensive, so finding an affordable funeral home is crucial. 

A typical funeral service includes a room, decorations, casket, furniture, lighting, fans, and flowers, costing between S$4,000 and S$7,500. 

Religious funerals can be pricier due to ceremonial items, with a two-day Taoist funeral costing up to S$8,300. Non-religious funerals are generally cheaper at around S$3,000 to S$4,000. 

How We Picked

Facility and Amenities: The funeral home should provide a comfortable and well-maintained facility with suitable amenities, including viewing rooms, chapels, and reception areas for family and friends.

Flexibility: A good funeral service should offer a range of options to cater to different budgets and preferences, allowing families to customise the funeral to their needs.

Professionalism: The staff should be professional, well-trained, and experienced in handling all aspects of funeral arrangements, from paperwork to ceremonies, with dignity and respect.

Cultural Sensitivity: Given the diverse cultural and religious backgrounds in Singapore, a reputable funeral service should be well-versed in various funeral customs and traditions, respecting and accommodating the specific needs and beliefs of each family.

Transparency: Clear and transparent pricing is essential. Families should receive detailed cost breakdowns and have a thorough understanding of the services provided, ensuring no hidden fees or surprises.

“I held my father’s funeral at Woodlands Memorial early Sept. The environment was tranquil, very clean and well designed to hold such services. I was assisted by Peter of WM and Siam from Singapore Funeral Group. Both helped a great deal with all details of the funeral from day 1. Peter handled any issues I faced readily. He was always on hand to ensure we do not have any worries during the difficult time. Siam and team were knowledgeable and professional with the entire funeral services. Also very ready to handle any queries we had. Both team worked well together to ensure we had nothing to worry for the whole process. We are grateful how they manage the funeral process well and proper while we try to get through the difficult period.” — Jazreen Leon

“Our beloved father recently passed away peacefully and our experience to hold his funeral service at Woodlands Memorial was well organized and seamless. We started a few months ago looking for an ideal resting place for our terminally sick father. When we arrived at the Woodlands Memorial, we were warmly greeted by Assistant General Manager Peter and he was very kind and patient to show and explain to us all the halls, suites and the columbarium. He also explained clearly to us the funeral packages available and the price of the double niche we needed at the columbarium. The venue provides a one-stop funeral services, which handles from the start of the moment on your loss of your loved one to the wake, prayers, cremation, ash collection and placement of the urn to their Columbarium. The facilities are new, clean, modern and spacious with sky gardens on various floors, which added the ideal peacefulness and calming environment during the visits to the Woodlands Memorial. Google its website and everything is true to what we have experienced there. What made this place our choice for our beloved father, were both their great facilities and most important the caring people, who assisted us through the funeral process. Special mentions to Peter, who was physically and emotionally with us throughout our 5 days’ wake and always ready to assist us on all our requests. Siam and his team, who guided and walked through with us during the wake and cremation, and not forgetting the wonderful smiling housekeeping staff, who regularly clean up our hall and stock up our drinks promptly. Without any doubts, our families were delighted to make our right decision to select the Woodlands Memorial and highly recommended everyone to visit the place and meet the professional and wonderful team there.” — Alex Ting

Customer Reviews

Sanctuary was well lit, with comfortable temperature

“Engaging Direct Funeral Services is probably one of the best decisions made. From the time we informed the passing of my father, Anson arrived on site swiftly. He slowly guided us along on what’s required and the possible packages according to how we wish to have the final journey mapped out for our father. The sanctuary was well lit, with comfortable temperature, ease of using the toilet and even a family room to rest for private quiet moments. Each day we (family members and my late father) were greeted with respect and services was professional and filled with compassion. Each and every detail was carefully planned and reminders given to us so as to make the entire wake and funeral procession fuss free and dignified. We were also given the chance to reminisce the wonderful life our father had with us through the video montage done for us. The funeral procession was nothing but praises as we also had a touching eulogy shared by Anson. The team also helped to take videos/photos for our keepsake. Even on the final day for the ash collection, we were greeted by Andrea with the most compassion and respect given to our father. She carefully guided us and my father to the car so we could bring him to his forever resting place. Abundance of heartfelt thanks and offering my most sincere review is an expression of my gratitude of the assistance rendered. Thank you team Direct.”

Efficient and friendly

“I highly recommend Direct Funeral Services. Anson and team were very efficient and friendly, starting from the initial consultation, hospital pick-up and throughout the wake and memorial. The Embalming team worked very well and turnaround time was very fast. The hall assigned to us at Mt Vernon Sanctuary was very beautiful and the floral arrangements were very classy. We are very pleased to have made the right choice during this difficult time.”

Customer Reviews

Here are some reviews from their clients:

“SFS handled both my dads and mums wakes. First one in 2019 and the second one just last week. I could not have asked for a better team. Gerard was professional, compassionate, and most of all guided me the whole way from even before mum’s passing. He was patient with my requests and did all he could to help with the Audio Visual equipment, coming down to check on the set up and drinks and snacks stock regularly. Han handled the re ordering of items and assisted me almost daily. He was polite and friendly and the epitomy of professionalism. At the church and crematorium Gabriel assisted Gerard in ensuring we all knew what to do and where to go. It could not have been a smoother, more peaceful send-off for mum. I will be forever grateful that they were with us during mums final moments here on earth. All the staff were in suits and very very sensitive and polite during the entire wake and funeral. I cant recommend them enough. You wont go wrong in engaging their services. Many thanks to the SFS team for all their help and hard work. From me and my family.”

“It was beyond my expectations that we could received such meticulous support from SFS team led by Mr Hoo Hung Chye , during our bereavement at my mum’s wake. Their compassion, efficiency , team work was beyond words. At intervals and even night vigil were attended to. I couldn’t thank them enough. Deeply appreciated!Maria and family.”

Everything was handled beautifully, from the prayers to the collection of the ashes

“As its name suggests, Reliant was a strong pillar of support throughout my father’s funeral. Being unfamiliar with Taoist funerals, we depended greatly on this wonderful company to guide us. On top of knowing exactly what they were doing and being efficient, they were also honest, trustworthy and sensitive in their interactions with us. Everything was handled beautifully, from the prayers to the collection of the ashes. Everyone was professional, friendly and easy to communicate with. It was also helpful that the team could speak English, Mandarin and Hokkien. Words can’t sufficiently describe how grateful I am to Xiu Li and her team. I would strongly recommend this company if you’re in the unfortunate position of having to plan a funeral for a loved one as I am certain that you will be in good hands.”
