Welcome to Tobin Brothers Funerals

Welcome to the Tobin Brothers Funerals website which we believe provides extensive, clear and practical information about our funeral planning services and options, as well as details of our after-care support services, funeral notices and events.

If you require information in respect to funeral costs or our fixed price funeral plans, our Funeral Planners will provide an itemised fee proposal outlining all of the services and costs involved with a funeral, so as to reflect the life of your loved one and your family's needs.

This site also features some creative innovations, including a Funeral Notice section with information regarding funerals in Melbourne and Echuca that we are currently or have recently directed, and the ability for friends to send flowers or a message of condolence to those we are serving. The Tribute Candles section even allows people to light an online candle in memory of a loved one or friend.

Funeral Directors

For over 80 years, Tobin Brothers continues to be proudly owned and operated by the Tobin family. As a trusted name in Melbourne, we cater to all manner of funerals – from traditional, religious, or ethnic and cultural celebrations of life to even more unique funerals for your loved ones.

Whether you want to have a motorcycle with a side car to carry the casket, a cavalcade of vintage cars, special décor or a unique location we can arrange the perfect funeral for your loved one.

Just talk with one of our Funeral Planners on our Funeral Advice Line on (03) 9373 7000.

Funeral Webcasting

When friends or family are unable to attend a funeral service because they live in a nursing home,interstate or overseas or when they may have commitments that can not be changed, a funeral webcast is a logical alternative. Webcasting a funeral enables absent mourners the opportunity to view and hear the funeral live from anywhere in the world for far less than the cost of travelling to the service.

To Access a Webcast

To access a webcast or to view a service that has already been webcast enter the deceased’s surname into the Funeral Service Search box to the right of the screen.
