CALL TO ARRANGE
Friendly Ride provides funeral car service across New York City, for families arranging transportation directly and for funeral homes with a standing account. One dispatcher, a current fleet, and chauffeurs trained to be present without being seen.
Most families only arrange transportation like this once or twice in a lifetime. We keep our part simple, confirm the time, the vehicle and the route with whoever is organizing the day, then show up early and stay out of the way.
Funeral homes that work with us regularly hold a standing account, the same way a corporate client does, so a director can book a car without a new conversation about rates or paperwork each time.
A sedan or Mercedes-Maybach S 680 for the immediate family, with a chauffeur who knows to wait quietly.
Multiple vehicles staged in order behind the hearse, held together by one dispatcher from start to finish.
A standing account with consolidated billing, so a director can book directly without re-arranging terms each time.
Larger families and extended parties covered with Escalade ESVs or Sprinter vans, staged to the same timing.
We keep the process short on purpose. Most of what we need, we already have from doing this regularly.
Tell us the date, the service location and how many cars the day needs. Same-day requests are handled regularly.
We confirm pickup times and the route directly with the family or the funeral director, so nothing is left to guesswork on the day.
Positioned ahead of time and staying through the service, so the family’s only job that day is to be present.
A Mercedes-Benz S-Class or Mercedes-Maybach S 680 serves most immediate families. A Cadillac Escalade ESV or Sprinter van covers a larger group, and a traditional Chrysler 300 stretch limousine is available when a family or funeral home prefers one. Every vehicle is black, current and inspected before it leaves the garage.
Same-day arrangements are usually possible. For a larger procession or a specific vehicle request, a day or two of notice makes planning easier on everyone.
Yes. Standing accounts are available for funeral homes, billed the same way as our corporate accounts, with one invoice and a dispatcher who already knows the account.
A current Mercedes-Benz sedan or Mercedes-Maybach S 680 for the immediate family, a Cadillac Escalade ESV for a larger group, and a traditional Chrysler 300 stretch limousine when a family or funeral home prefers one.
Yes. One dispatcher stages and holds the full procession together, from the family car through to the last vehicle, timed against the service.
Yes, across New York City, including Queens, with the same chauffeur and vehicle standard wherever the service is held.
