Selwyn Allen Funerals

Organising a funeral following the loss of a loved one is often a harrowing and bewildering experience. As Melbourne’s most experienced and trusted funeral director, Selwyn Allen can lift that unwelcome weight from your shoulders. We understand we can’t possibly take away your pain, but we will ease the burden so you can properly grieve and farewell your loved one. Selwyn Allen provides the highest level of trust, experience and service at the most competitive price – 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

 EXPERIENCE, TRUST AND CERTAINTY

What kind of funeral service do I require? What do I need to do after a death and who do I need to notify? These are questions most bereaved families consider for the first time after a loved one has passed away. At this difficult time, you need a funeral director who can advise and guide you where appropriate, and take the load in making all necessary funeral arrangements.

This gives you the time and space:

• To deal with your loss
• To properly reflect on the life of your loved one
• To think about and advise on the most appropriate and dignified farewell

… safe in the knowledge that all practical issues are being dealt with by the funeral director.

WHAT MAKES SELWYN ALLEN FUNERALS DIFFERENT?

Selwyn Allen Funerals is one of Victoria’s most established funeral directors – and one of the last remaining independent, family-operated firms in Melbourne. Based in Mount Waverley, Selwyn and his son Geoff have organised thousands of funerals for families throughout Melbourne and Victoria, interstate and overseas.

Selwyn and Geoff are proud to provide:

•  Personally tailored religious or secular services designed to meet each client’s specific needs
•  The highest-quality service at reasonable prices
•  Only Australian-made Caskets and Coffins

From large public ceremonies for fallen police officers killed in the line of duty to small intimate gatherings, Selwyn has been serving bereaved families for almost 50 years. They have benefited from the experience and extensive knowledge of a man who in 1996 received life membership of the Australian Funeral Directors Association (AFDA). Both Selwyn and Geoff are committed to maintaining the high standards required by the funeral sector’s peak organisation.

A Hearse With An Added Touch Of Class

Selwyn’s stellar reputation is perhaps only surpassed by his vintage Armstrong Siddeley – one of only two left in the world. The hearse was imported from Wales and lovingly restored by the Allen family. It has been used in many funerals, and is in high demand around the country from people who share Selwyn’s passion for vintage cars.
