POTTER’S FIELD FUNERALS
Choosing is Giving
At Potter’s Field Funerals we believe in doing things differently. We believe that providing a funeral service is not purely a commercial exchange, it’s a community exchange.
Our core philosophy is simple; a belief that getting and giving can be one.
Potter’s Field Funerals is an independently run funeral company trading as a social enterprise. We provide affordable, traditional and contemporary funeral care to all Victorians with the singular purpose being to support the ongoing work for Bereavement Assistance Ltd, Victoria’s only non-affiliated, not-for-profit funeral company.
Bereavement Assistance Ltd was established to provide at-cost and charitable funeral care to members of the Victorian community who, due to financial disadvantage, were not able to afford commercial funeral services.

How We Work
As a team of funeral directors committed to keeping our prices affordable, we work a little differently to large commercial funeral companies. Keeping our service fees as low as possible is an essential part of our philosophy of providing ethical and inclusive funeral care.
Based in Oakleigh, we service areas across Melbourne and regional Victoria, helping families celebrate their cherished memories of a loved one, through a personalised funeral service. With a wealth of experience and professionalism, our team will treat your family as they would their own, providing support in any way possible during a time of loss. Our funeral home director is available 8.30-4.30 Monday to Friday to answer any of your inquiries and we have a pickup service 24/7 to organise the transfer of your loved one into our care. However, arrangement services will only be available during business hours.
Our staff will create a memorable funeral service for your loved one. Our team is here to guide and help you with your funeral service arrangements so you will never feel alone. Whether you prefer a religious ceremony or a quiet cremation, we can help you plan and conduct funerals of every kind. Even with our affordable funeral director service fees, we will ensure a dignified, quality funeral service that best reflects your loved one’s life and ideals.
To coordinate arrangements for a meaningful farewell, you can visit us at our office, or our funeral home directors in Melbourne also offer the option of doing the arrangements over the phone, email or Zoom if you prefer that option. We will take the time to understand your needs and take care of all the details, so you can focus on more important family matters.
