Melbourne Funeral Directors – Family Owned – Since 1987
Our family has been supporting Melbourne families providing professional funeral services for almost 40 years. Malcolm (Mal) Dubock established Dubock Funerals after leaving a well-known family funeral home following its sale to a corporate company. He believed strongly that funeral services should be centred on genuine care, compassion and support.
Today, Mal’s three children, Steve, Philip and Jane, together with his granddaughter Portia, are involved in the day-to-day running of the business. We remain committed to upholding Mal’s values and providing the highest level of care and personal service to every family we serve.

Our priority is looking after the needs of client families first and foremost. We take care to alleviate the pressures of an extremely difficult and important time, assisting families in creating a special and personal service that reflects and honours the life of their loved one.
Being a family-owned funeral home gives us the flexibility to provide a level of personal service that some larger funeral businesses may not be able to offer. We shape each service around our client family’s individual needs. When a family has a special request that is particularly important to them, we do everything we can to make it happen.
Flexibility with funeral arrangements is important and can be held at time and location that suits your family. We are available 24 hours a day, including weekends and public holidays, and can accommodate specific requests such as viewings after hours and at the family home.
We always prioritise our client families individual needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do first when someone dies?
Call us any time, day or night, on (03) 9384 1100. Our team will guide you through the process and when required arrange for a transfer of your loved one into our care — there’s no need to have any decisions made before you call
Do you service areas outside Brunswick West?
Yes. While our office and viewing lounge are based in Brunswick West, we arrange funerals throughout Metropolitan Melbourne and outer suburbs, Geelong, the Mornington Peninsula and Regional Victoria when requested.
Can we hold a private funeral and a separate public memorial later?
Yes, this is an option many families choose — a small private funeral for close family, with a viewing if required, followed by a larger memorial or celebration of life at a later date when extended family and friends can attend.
Do you offer live streaming for family who can’t attend in person?
Yes, we offer professional live streaming and recording services, allowing family and friends who may be interstate, overseas, or otherwise unable to attend in person to still be part of the farewell. The recording also provides an important keepsake for the family to treasure for years to come.
Can my loved one stay at home before the funeral?
Yes. We can provide CoolBlanket to allow for a home stay, we would usually recommend the CoolBlanket up to 5 days depending on individual circumstances. For longer stays we would recommend preservation treatment (embalming). Our team, led by a highly experienced, qualified embalmer, would guide you.
Do you offer prepaid or pre-arranged funeral plans?
Yes, we offer both prepaid funeral plans and pre-arranged arrangements. With a prepaid plan, your money is securely invested in a Capital Guaranteed Funeral Bond. There are many advantages to prepaying your funeral — Click Here for more information
