Private Ashes Storage

Here at Secure Haven, we are the only UK based Funeral Directors to have their own in-house urn private storage facility. Complimentary to families that use our funeral services, once we have collected your loved one’s ashes, they are stored securely within a niche in our Chelmsford premises, in which they remain safe until such time as decisions have been made.

These simple oak-lined niches are deliberately kept unostentatious and have individual locks. Each niche has two keys: one kept by us securely in a safe and one is kept by you. Niches can be visited (by appointment) and can also be personalised with a letter or photograph.

The use of the niches is also available to those who haven’t used our Funeral services. This can be for as long as required and costs just £1 per day. If you wish to store ashes with us for a year, the charge will be £360, including VAT.
