We've used Morton's on 2 previous occasions and now, following the death of my father we had full confidence in their ability to repeat a wonderful level of service aligned to a ca ... ring and sympathetic approach to matters 'on the day'. We fully endorse and commend their work which they carry through in such a professional, thoughtful and considerate manner - through the whole process they made a sad occasion so much easier for us all to deal with. The whole team at Morton's are kind, thoughtful, professional and caring in every way. I would highly recommend them to see you gently through this whole process. more

We found ourselves in the unbearable situation where our dad died 3 days after my mom’s funeral. I did not hesitate to call Neil, who collected Dad out of hours and from that momen ... t on anticipated what we wanted. Morton’s created a beautiful visual tribute which everyone commented on at the funeral. more

About Us

After Albert passed away in 1941, his wife Caroline took up the running of the family business until 1946 when their son Victor returned from service in the RAF. Victor maintained the high standards set by his father and continued to establish the business as one which could be relied upon to provide a level of service second to none. Victor and his wife Ivy had two sons - Grant and Miles - who were both destined to carry on the family tradition.

In 1982, as part of their development plans, Grant and Miles appointed Derek Case to assist them with the future development needs of Mortons. In the same year the Rubery office was opened, followed by the Cotteridge office some 12 years later.

By 2005 Derek Case had become Managing Director with a remit to steer Mortons in a modern and ever-changing world. His daughter, Sarah, had started working in a part-time capacity whilst completing her Law Degree. She joined in a full-time capacity when her studies were completed in 2005, thus starting another ‘family tradition’ albeit outside the original Morton family. Sarah now holds the position of Managing Director and is responsible for the day-to-day running of the company.

Mortons have recently purchased alternative vehicle companies and now own a wide selection of alternative funeral vehicles, Jaguar hearses and limousines, a Rolls Royce Hearse and limousine, a Mini Traveller Hearse, Morris Minor Hearse, an Austin Van hearse, Wheelchair accessible vehicle, split screen VW Hearse and bay window VW Hearse, with even more options available soon.

Mortons continue to make investments in their staff recruitment, training, and uniforms, together with improvements to their facilities and the vehicles they use. They have recently completed a major refurbishment of all offices, and remain focused on buying ethically, and British, wherever possible.

Mortons Funeral Directors in Northfield pride themselves on a rigorous in-house training program for staff and promise that your call will always be answered by a member of the team, with a duty Funeral Director available 24 hours a day.

Mortons came out of hours to collect Mom and from that moment on looked after everyone and our needs. Neil was on hand to answer any questions and was compassionate and professional.

Morton's Funeral Directors have arranged both my grandparents funerals, and as a family we would highly recommend them.

Most recently regarding my Nan's funeral, they made the process as simple as possible. Right from the first phone call, when we arranged collection of her body, we found every person we dealt with at Morton's to be caring, compassionate and at all times professional.

We were able to book in a meeting with a funeral director when it suited us best. Steve was really helpful and informative, he also went to the effort of looking up the details of my grandad's funeral he had arranged in 2000 in case we wanted to mirror anything in my Nan's service. A extra special touch that really resonated with us. They helped us secure a date for my Nan's funeral and location that was special and relevant to the family.

We were kept up to date with everything and it was made really clear what decisions we needed to make and timescales involved. They accomm ... odated multiple Chapel of Rest visits for different family members to say their goodbyes to my nan.

The day of her funeral everything seemed effortless, which is exactly what you want from a funeral directors, as the day should be about saying your goodbyes with no additional stresses. They treated her with respect and care on her final journey. It was a very fitting send off. I can't praise Morton's enough for what they have done for our family. more

"We received exceptional service from Mortons. 24 years ago, they provided outstanding care for our father, and because of that experience, we had no hesitation in turning to them again when our mother passed. The professionalism, empathy, and compassion they showed us during such a difficult time were truly remarkable. Their thoughtful attention to every detail made a challenging experience a little easier to bear. We are deeply grateful for the care and support they provided to our family."
