We work with Dukinfield Crematorium and Stockport Crematorium, and we will help you decide which feels right for your family. On the day, our team will guide the cortège from wherever the service begins, accompanying your loved one with the care and dignity they deserve throughout the journey to the crematorium.
We have three on-site parking spaces at our Howard Street funeral home, and there is also a paid car park nearby as well as street parking available for families travelling in from New Mills or further afield. We want to be transparent that the arrangement room is not on the ground floor and we do not currently have full wheelchair access, though we do have an accessible toilet — please speak to our team in advance and we will do everything we can to make your visit as comfortable as possible.
We are experienced in arranging funerals of all kinds, whether that is a secular celebration of life, a humanist ceremony, or a service rooted in a specific faith tradition. Our team at Howard Street will take time to understand what matters most to your family and help shape a farewell that feels true to the person who died.
Yes, our team at Glossop Carriage Company on Howard Street regularly supports families across Hayfield and the surrounding villages. We also cover New Mills, Hadfield, Hollingworth, and Mottram, so wherever you are in the area, we are here to help you through every step of the arrangements.
Please do not hesitate to call us; we are available to take your call and can arrange for your father to be brought into our care from Glossop or any of the surrounding areas, including Hollingworth and Mottram.
