Service overview
What funeral & memorial transportation with NABs actually looks like.
What it is
Private hire to and from funeral services, crematoria, memorial services and wakes across Berkshire and Oxfordshire. Coordinated alongside the funeral director, not in competition with them.
Who it is for
Families needing additional cars for relatives, friends needing a thoughtful shuttle to a service, and anyone who wants to be driven on a difficult day rather than parking and walking in alone.
When you need it
We can be booked at very short notice. Tell us the date and venues and we'll work to fit any timing the family or director needs.
Why professional matters
Funeral days are emotional and tightly timed. A driver who is calm, dressed for the occasion and on time removes one entire category of stress from the family.
What goes wrong when this isn't planned
Get this wrong and the whole day pivots around it.
Transport on a funeral day either disappears into the background, or becomes the thing that goes wrong. We make sure it's the first.
Late-arriving cars at the chapel
Crematoria slot in 30 minutes. A car running late costs the family minutes of the only service they have.
The driver who chats
Some days are not for small talk. We take our cue from the family.
Relatives left without a lift to the wake
Onward travel from chapel to reception is often where things break. We plan it as one job.
App-booked cars on the day
Funeral days are not the day for a 4.7-star app driver. They are a day for a known, professional driver.

The detail
How funeral & memorial transportation actually breaks down.
Funeral work is treated with extra care. The detail here is what families have asked for over the years.
Mourner shuttles
Additional mourners often need a lift to the chapel and on to the wake — particularly elderly relatives. We run these as a quiet shuttle, scheduled around the service.
Onward travel to the wake
The wake is usually at a separate venue from the service. We coordinate the route between chapel and reception so nobody is left waiting.
Return home & travel for guests staying away
Where guests are staying in local hotels and need onward travel — including airport runs the next day for relatives from overseas — we coordinate this as part of the same booking.
