Help in a time of need



Have you ever wondered what to do if you need to organise a funeral?

For most people, arranging a funeral is not something they do every day but at Gregson and Weight Funeral Directors, that’s exactly what they do.

“Memorable funerals don’t just happen, it takes a team of dedicated, professional staff with the experience and facilities to bring your ideas to reality and to help relieve the burden at a difficult time” said General Manager Luke Gregson.

Established on the Sunshine Coast since 1972, Gregson and Weight are the Sunshine Coast’s longest serving Funeral Directors, having helped almost 45,000 families in their time of need.

As fully accredited members of the Australian Funeral Directors Association, they provide quality premises and facilities, trained professional staff and exceptional service. With these very high standards, we have built a reputation for funeral excellence as leaders in the Queensland funeral industry.

“We’ve been supporting families on the Sunshine Coast and Hinterland for more than 50 years and our experienced team of arrangers truly know what organising a funeral is all about,” said Luke.

Gregson and Weight also offer appointments for pre-arrangements and funeral bonds.

“When it comes to pre-planning funerals, it can be hard thinking about the inevitable but it just makes good sense” Luke said.

He said they take pride in being the Sunshine Coast’s most trusted funeral business, because at Gregson and Weight, they don’t just arrange funerals, they build long-lasting relationships with families. With four branches across the Sunshine Coast and Hinterland, the team from Gregson and Weight Funeral Directors are here to help.
