Temporary preservation
Charges for local removal out of hours, including night time, weekends & bank holidays
(or part thereof)
Our professional attention throughout the arrangements, including local in-hours removal, use of Chapel of Rest and administration for repatriation.
Temporary preservation for overseas travel. For repatriation by air, there is a legal requirement for the deceased to be embalmed.
For transport beyond the UK and Ireland: a basic zinc-lined hermetically sealed solid wood coffin is required
Time permitting, a hermetically sealed zinc lining can be added to most of our coffins in our range for an additional charge. Airlines require the deceased to be transported in a hermetically (airtight) sealed coffin (excludes Ireland and within the UK).
Lorna and her colleagues were very professional, responsive and symphatetic. They made what it was a challenging time for me and my family much easier.

At the Camden branch of Levertons,James met us in our grief with a quiet professional manner.He arranged the funeral ,step by step,consulting us all the way.What had been for me,a dreaded event ,became a most wonderful,memorable experience.I can't recommend Levertons highly enough,or thank them enough.

From the planning of the service to the day of the funeral itself, Levertons displayed empathy and professionalism in all regards. I would unhesitatingly recommend Levertons for sensitive and supportive work that goes the extra mile and is intensely human in its advice and understanding.

Andrew Leverton's Service can only be described as impecable. The personal touch provided by Andrew himself and his team, the calm explanations and effortless arrangements made the whole process smooth and effortless, which was invaluable to our family at this difficult time.

Levertons recently dealt with the arrangements for my husband's funeral. I found them (and particularly James) to be efficient, kind and compassionate during a very difficult time. Highly recommended.

Leverton & Son handled the repatriation of my sister to Ireland with great care and professionalism. Their support and compassion meant a lot during a very difficult time.

The funeral was organised by Levertons [Lorna at Kentish town] was complete efficiency and kindness. She advised us what to do and when and was a real support.

I can highly recommend Leverton. They are both very professional, sympathetic and supportive. They handled my darling Mum's funeral with dignity, grace and most importantly kindness and understanding. Nothing was too much trouble. Thank you very much.
Review by Corinne E left on 19 Jun 2025
Drew at Leverton was very helpful and caring during the whole process from planning to the actual funeral. They took care of everything discreetly and without a hitch. Leverton also provided a Celebrant, Libby, who was also excellent, both with the planning of the service and with her contributions to the eulogies. During a difficult time, we were very grateful to Leverton for their help and support. Happy to recommend

Everything was handled professionally and in accordance with my wishes, from initial contact through to the funeral and administration after. It was a very easy process, aided by Drew's calm and sensitive approach.
