Our latest new Electric Hearse has joined our fleet

We, in partnership with designer Steve Cousins, pioneered the UK’s first all-electric Eco-Hearse in 2013. Nine years later in July 2022 we took delivery of our first full-size electric Nissan hearse.

These hearses have proven popular with our clients, providing the option of a modern and environmentally friendly funeral in and around London.

This new electric hearse is based on a Nissan Leaf. The additional construction is made of recycled carbon fibre which means it weighs only 3% more than the original car. Its zero emissions battery can easily manage woodland burials in the home counties and can travel up to 200 miles on a single charge.

We also have a Nissan Leaf saloon in our vehicle fleet to function as a passenger car for mourners and bearers.

Our early innovation won us The Good Funeral Guide’s Best Green Funeral Director award in 2013 and again in 2017 and we were also shortlisted for the 2015 Camden Business Award’s carbon reduction and energy category.

We are constantly striving to offer our clients what they want. Every funeral we do is different, and we can provide clients with environmentally friendly funerals that are delivered with the same high quality of care and personalisation.

Contact us to find out more about our new Electric Hearse and about our Eco-friendly funerals.

I never had to arrange a funeral but with your help from registering Tony with you before he was repatriated through the whole process your expertise and kindness and patience were invaluable . The funeral went without a hitch you carried it out with dignity and respect you and your staff have shown why Levertons is and will always be a service that my family have always used and will continue to use and recommending Andrew was amazing he truly led one of the best services I have seen in a while and such a fitting tribute to Tony . So pass on my thanks to Andrew to your team and you for helping me and my family through such a tough and sad time in our lives .

From making the phone call to book funeral services to the very end of the process we were treated with kindness, respect and every request we made was met with ease. On the day all of the staff involved were very courteous and everything ran very smoothly, which make such a had experience much easier to bare.

We went to Leverton’s after we had visited another funeral directors. From the moment we walked in and Deborah Rush, the funeral directors at Fortis Green, greeted us we felt confident in her management of my Mother’s funeral. The process was seamless and Deborah advised and enabled us in planning and undertaking a very personal funeral.
