Professional export agents across the UK

Based in Bognor Regis, Advance Sales Services UK Ltd is a family run business with extensive experience in the logistics industry. The company was founded by our managing director, John Kersley, in 1998 to assist local businesses with their shipping needs. Over time, the business grew and a gap in the market was found for cremated remains transportation. A new division of the company was born, specialising in ashes repatriation.

Cremated remains transport

We are here to advise you on the repatriation of your loved one’s ashes, whether you wish to return them to the UK or send them abroad.

Testimonials

double-quotes

Barbara

I instructed Advances Sales Services UK Limited to repatriate my partner's ashes from England to Australia, in accordance with his wishes. It is difficult entrusting a loved one's ashes to a third party especially over such a long distance, but I am pleased to say that they arrived safely in Australia and there were no issues at all.

Rita

It was my late husband's wish and mine to have his ashes sent home to his family in Italy .l am so pleased I chose Advance Sales. From the first phone call I had with Peter I was put at ease.It was a long process with the Italian Consulate ,but Peters knowledge, understanding and patience helped me through. He took time with the fact all communication with the family had to be translated into Italian . That was to me a lovely personal touch,one that made things so much easier for everyone. His part of the process ,ran smoothly with no problems. Peter is professional with a caring touch.

Christophe

Mr Kersley was very easy to talk to to sort out our requirements and provide a quote. Once Covid restrictions were reduced sufficiently in the source country so that collection and shipping could go ahead, the whole process went very smoothly and astonishingly quickly. To say the service was good would be an understatement; it was 5 star door-to-door.

Brian D

Peter was very professional both in his correspondence and his service. His attention to detail and thoughtfulness was a good credit to himself and his company.

Rosie

Repatriated my parents ashes from Australia to the U.K. and service was so professional. At a difficult time, I was so grateful that I could rely on this service and felt they knew exactly what was required. Highly recommend

Karen

I was looking for a way to send my Sister's ashes to New Zealand and had no idea where to start.
I found Advanced Sales Services and contacted them by phone as I had so many questions. They were very helpful and friendly and I felt comfortable that they wold look after things for me and they did not fail. An excellent service and a very smooth operation. I was so pleased when I received notification from my Nephew that he had picked up his Mum's ashes safely and without any issues. I would recommend Advanced Sales Services to anyone looking for service of this type.

Rose

I found the service and advice from Advance Sales Services Ltd excellent at a time when I had absolutely no idea where to start in shipping Ashes to Europe for extended family . Most importantly they were available at the end of a phone and to be able to speak with a person rather than communicate by website/ email was so reassuring when I needed answers quickly. The service they provided was professional, personal and efficient. I can highly recommended them and I'm so grateful for all their help. I took their advice and I arranged for an undertaker to collect the ashes from the airport and they delivered the casket to the family. I have no complaints.
