Our Services

At McDonnell Funeral Directors, we provide a full range of funeral services, tailored to meet the wishes of each individual and family we care for. Whether you're arranging a funeral now or planning ahead, we’re here to offer guidance, support, and reassurance at every step.

Based in Belmullet, we serve families across the wider Erris region with compassion, dignity, and attention to detail. We can help with everything from the first call right through to the ceremony, burial or cremation, and aftercare.

At McDonnell Funeral Directors, we understand how difficult it is when a death occurs abroad. We offer a full repatriation service, guiding you through every step with care and professionalism — whether you need to bring someone home to Ireland, or arrange for them to be returned to another country.

From our base in Belmullet, we have experience working with embassies, airlines, and international funeral providers, and can manage all necessary paperwork and arrangements on your behalf. Our priority is to bring your loved one home with dignity and to support you during this challenging time.

If you require immediate assistance with repatriation, please contact us — we’re here to help.

Repatriation

Planning ahead can bring real peace of mind — for you and for those you care about. At McDonnell Funeral Directors, we offer a simple, supportive way to record your funeral wishes in advance, with the option to put financial plans in place if you choose.

Whether you’d like a traditional funeral, a cremation, or something more personal, we’ll take the time to talk through your preferences and answer any questions. Pre-planning is completely flexible — and it’s always your choice what to include.

To find out more, get in touch for a confidential conversation or register your wishes with us at any time.
