Transport and transfer
Safe, respectful transfer of your loved one into our care.
Our experienced team will help you plan a personalised funeral in Perth – that reflects your loved one’s life and beliefs.
Some families want a formal service. Others prefer something more relaxed. Whatever your needs, we’re here to help you plan a funeral that feels right for your loved one.
We work with families from many faiths. In Perth, we often plan farewells in accordance with Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican, Buddhist and Hindu faiths. Our team understands the importance of both tradition and flexibility, and we handle every element with care.
Our team supports families from a wide range of backgrounds, including Italian, Portuguese, Filipino, Chinese, Māori and Pasifika communities. Whether it’s a specific ritual, language or ceremony style, we’ll help ensure the funeral reflects your cultural values.
The most meaningful funerals are the ones that feel personal. You might want to play their favourite music, serve their signature dish or hold the service at a place they loved – a beach, a park, a school or even a winery. We’ll help bring those details together.
Every funeral includes guidance, planning and care across the following areas:
1
Safe, respectful transfer of your loved one into our care.
2
Help choosing a meaningful location and coordinating every part of the ceremony.
3
We work with your family to honour spiritual and cultural traditions with accuracy and respect.
4
Support with choosing celebrants, musicians, speakers and personalised content.

From viewings to memorials and aftercare, our team is here for as long as you need us.
This was my first time arranging a funeral, and I wasn’t sure what to expect.
From the very beginning, the team at Purslowe & Chipper made the experience so much easier during a very difficult time. Mykel was incredibly supportive, compassionate, and professional throughout the whole process. His calm and kind manner meant a great deal to me and my family.
Thank you to all involved.
My family and I could not have asked for more respectful and passionate service in the planning, the celebration of life chapel service and the catering after the service. Mal and Paul were available for any thing we required. I would strongly recommend Purslowe & Chipper Mandurah to anyone planning a funeral.
Just how we had hoped.
We are extremely grateful to Marjorie and the team for making our daughter Melissa’s service perfect in every way. Her choice of celebrant was the best and proved how well she had listened to my husband and myself when we were talking about our beautiful princess. The attention that was paid to us and our family in the days leading up to the funeral and of course on the day itself made for a funeral that reflected our daughter’s life with such celebration.
A funeral typically takes place within a few days or weeks after passing. It typically involves either a burial or a service before cremation. A memorial is held after a burial or cremation, sometimes weeks or months later.
No, we can plan a funeral to be held in a range of locations. In the past, we’ve held services at parks, beaches, halls and wineries. Let us know what you’re thinking and we’ll try to make it happen.
Yes. Some families choose to include spiritual elements even if they don’t follow a specific faith. We’ll guide you through the options.
Absolutely. Many families blend traditions with more contemporary choices. We’re here to help you get the balance right.
Our chapels offer live-streaming and recording options, so family and friends can take part from anywhere.
You’re not alone. We’ll help you make thoughtful choices that reflect who they were and what mattered most to them.
