Support is available around the clock to help you take the next steps. Our dedicated, compassionate funeral specialists are just a phone call away.
For generations, families have turned to us for support. We’ll guide you through, step by step.
In life’s most difficult moments, we’re here to help as much as we can.
Support and guidance as the funeral takes shape.
Call us any time, day or night. You’ll be put straight through to a caring funeral specialist who’ll start supporting you right away, starting with bringing your loved one into our care.
Visit our Bulli or Kembla Grange funeral home to meet with your dedicated funeral director, talk things through and start shaping the service together.
Choose music, readings, flowers and other personal touches that reflect your loved one. Tell us what matters most, and we’ll help make it happen.
A steady presence, helping the service run to plan.
Your funeral director can greet guests and guide the service, or support a priest, celebrant, or other officiant.
Your funeral director knows the service plan inside and out and will manage the details on the day, so you don’t have to.
Ongoing support, when you need it – because grief doesn’t follow a timeline.
If you need support, we can refer you to trusted grief and counselling services.
You’re warmly welcomed to our community events throughout the year, such as our Mother’s Day morning tea.
Celebrate the life of your loved one at one of our South Coast funeral homes, or at a location that’s meaningful to you.
Our Bulli funeral home has a dedicated viewing room, or we can help arrange a viewing in the comfort of your own home.
Whether a burial or cremation, we’ll help you through each step, including liaising with the cemetery or crematorium.
Gather after the service for light refreshments and snacks at our Bulli funeral home, or at another local venue.
We can help you create a slideshow or memorial video, capturing photos, clips and music that represents your loved one’s life.
Include family and friends who can’t make it on the day with funeral live-streaming, in partnership with OneRoom.
We’re proud to support families from all walks of life. Our team brings experience, flexibility and respect to every service, working closely with you to honour your cultural or religious traditions – whatever they may be.
For generations, families across the Illawarra have turned to us for experienced funeral guidance and support. It’s a responsibility we don’t take lightly. We’re honoured to be by your side, helping to ease stress during a difficult time.
Thank you Hansen and Cole.
The care and understanding of our heartache, compassion, empathy and sympathy we received from Megan was absolutely amazing from our first visit preparing mums funeral service to the very end when we left. Megan thank you so much, you really made the whole process a little easier for us. Even the night mum passed and Hansen and Cole came to take mum away, they were amazing with the whole family.
Good service, very thorough for accuracy and attention to detail.
Easy to accommodate any of our requests and followed up all outstanding issues quickly making the process of saying good bye to our mother and grandmother with sensitivity and compassion.
They both made that extremely difficult situation a little easier for me.
In the most difficult time of my life I found Jess and Paul from Kembla Grange so very comforting and kind and compassionate and explained everything to myself and my family step by step when everything is so overwhelming at that point.
We can help you honour your loved one in a range of locations, including private homes, local venues, parks or beaches (where access is permitted). While we have two beautiful funeral homes – one in Bulli and another in Kembla Grange – you’re not required to hold the service at either location. You’ll still receive the same experienced guidance and support, whether you use one of our chapels or pick an offsite venue.
Our two funeral homes offer different facilities. The Kembla Grange funeral home is the larger location, with two chapels – one seating up to 300 people and another seating up to 60 – as well as a reflection lounge, private arrangement rooms and a coffin selection room. The Bulli funeral home includes one chapel with seating for up to 100 people, two arrangement rooms and a dedicated viewing room.
This is a very common feeling. The first step is to simply call us. Your call will be answered by a caring funeral specialist who will listen, answer your questions and gently guide you through the next steps. They can also arrange for your loved one to be brought into our care. Our funeral specialists are available 24/7, so you can call anytime – no need to wait for business hours.
Absolutely. At Hansen & Cole, we believe every farewell should be unique. Whether it's choosing meaningful music, adding personal readings, incorporating cultural traditions, or hosting the service somewhere special, we'll help you create a day that truly reflects the person you're honouring.
Costs vary depending on choices such as the type of service, coffin or casket, flowers, venue and additional personal touches. Clear guidance is provided throughout, along with an upfront, transparent quote so there are no surprises. Pricing can also be viewed in advance, with the option to design a personalised service or choose an all-inclusive package.
Day or night, we're here to help.
