Pinetown Funeral Services was founded by Clive Moodley, who started his working life as a newspaper vendor and car washer before driving vehicles for other undertakers. In 1993, together with his wife Vanessa, he saved enough to start the business with a single vehicle — built on a simple principle: every family, regardless of means or background, deserves a dignified send-off for the people they love.

Three decades later, that single vehicle has grown into a fleet of luxury hearses and family cars — including what’s believed to be the world’s first Rolls-Royce Ghost hearse — with branches across Durban and now Cape Town. The business remains family-run to this day, led by Clive and his brother Christopher, with the next generation, including Bradlin Moodley who leads our Cape Town branch, carrying the same values forward.

Our Cape Town branch, based in Killarney Gardens, Milnerton, brings that same standard of care to the Western Cape — combining the group’s national experience and supplier relationships with a local team that knows Cape Town’s communities, cemeteries, crematoria, and cultural requirements first-hand.
