Schrader is a Family Name You Can Trust. Here's Why.
- Our Longstanding Reputation
Our longstanding reputation for excellence in funeral service dates to 1868. No other family owned funeral home in the area has been in business longer than the Schrader family. For five generations, St. Louis families have trusted the Schrader family to care for their loved ones. We receive hundreds of testimonials every year from families who appreciate the excellent care and service they experienced at Schrader.
- Our Beautiful Facilities
The largest, most beautiful funeral homes in West St. Louis County are in Ballwin and Eureka. Our locations are convenient to major highways and all points in between. You'll appreciate the beautiful grounds, the comfortable, well-appointed rooms, and convenient parking areas. Our crematory is on-site at our Ballwin campus. Our large Family Center in Ballwin is the logical and most convenient location for an after-funeral reception.
- Schrader is Locally Owned and Community Minded
We are St. Louis owned and managed. That sets us apart from corporate or franchise funeral homes with locations across the country or even around the world. As a local, small business, we support and donate to local causes and charities as much as we can because we know that home is where the heart is. Large corporations and out of town owners do not understand the importance of supporting the local community. We do.
- Our Experienced, Caring Staff
Our staff members are among the most experienced funeral professionals in St. Louis, who are genuinely committed to providing the best service possible to you. You'll find friendly, concerned, and caring staff members at both of our locations. We are the experienced experts in every facet of funeral and cremation services from intimate family gatherings to large-scale public ceremonies with thousands in attendance. We know we can't make the loss of a loved one easy. We try to make it easier for you by handling the details.
- Your Personal Choices
Whether you select cremation, burial, or an alternative service, you have choices in the services you select from Schrader. You're never pressured to buy anything. The choice is always personal. Always yours.
- Custom Tailored Remembrances
We want to help you create the most meaningful remembrance of your loved one. We offer personalized options in merchandise, personalized stationery choices, DVDs, photo displays, special music, balloon and dove releases, and personalized markers and monuments. For those who can't attend a ceremony in our chapel, live webcasting is available.
- Our Professional Pre-Planning Staff
You never deal with just a salesperson. Our preplanning staff members are licensed funeral directors who are experienced in helping you plan ahead. Guaranteed pricing for your prearranged service is the standard at Schrader, not an extra-cost option. We are here to help you, not sell you.
- Your Family is Our First Priority
Your family is our first and main priority. We are locally owned, so we don't answer to a distant board of directors or a regional manager whose focus is on profits and the bottom line. Our family owned business knows that our continued success is dependent on your complete satisfaction.
- Answers to Your Questions Any Time
Whether you call during the day with questions or in the middle of the night when a death occurs, your call will be answered by a Schrader staff member. You'll never get a cold, impersonal operator or answering service in a distant city, or even another country. A member of the Schrader staff is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to help you.
- Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed
The Schrader family and staff want you to be completely satisfied with our service to you. If there is something that is under our control that is not right, please let us know and give us the opportunity to make it right. If we cannot rectify the problem or situation to your satisfaction, you will not be charged for that portion of our services.
