Why Winter Is the Best Time to Get Funeral Cover

Winter in South Africa is more than just colder weather — it’s a season that often brings increased risks, especially for families with young children and the elderly. At Oneway Funerals, we’ve seen firsthand how unprepared loss during winter can deeply affect families. This is why winter is one of the most important times to have a funeral plan in place.

❄️ 1. Winter Increases Health Risks

During winter, cases of flu, pneumonia, and respiratory infections tend to rise, particularly among the elderly and those with chronic illnesses. When tragedy strikes during this time, families often don’t have time to gather funds or make arrangements.

🕯️ 2. Emotional Stress is Worse in Cold Seasons

Dealing with loss is already painful. Add the stress of cold, late-night hospital calls, transport issues, and no backup funds — and things get worse.

Oneway Funerals takes the pressure off. Our winter-ready service benefits include:

  • Full funeral package with hearse
  • Groceries & electricity vouchers
  • Branded tent and chairs
  • Grave decoration
  • Mobile data & airtime for communication
  • Immediate cash payouts
  • Repatriation (local & cross-border)

💙 3. Protecting Your Family Means Planning Ahead

Funeral planning isn’t about expecting the worst — it’s about giving your loved ones peace of mind, especially when life gets hard. Our plans start from R120/month, with the option to add family members from R45/month.

It’s affordable. It’s reliable. It’s essential.
