Call 0739 592 835: a colleague listens, confirms sector and neighbourhood, then estimates collection. You keep the same contact until the end — no hand-offs between operators.
If you are unsure whether embalming is needed, we explain briefly: it is mandatory for an open-casket chapel viewing, for transport to burial more than 30 km away and for repatriation; otherwise it is the family's choice. Details in the national guide.
