Our Scania Double Cab Hearse is a distinctive specialist funeral vehicle, offering families the opportunity to travel with their loved one on The Final Journey.
Model: Scania Double Cab Hearse
Year of manufacture: 2003
Colour: Black
Engine: 8970cc
Fuel: Diesel
Seating: Seats up to 7 people
Purpose: A family-focused truck hearse allowing selected family members to travel with their loved one on The Final Journey.
The Scania Double Cab Hearse offers something especially personal within our specialist fleet. With seating for up to 7 people, it gives family members the opportunity to travel together with their loved one as part of the final journey.
For some families, being close throughout the journey can be an important and comforting part of the tribute. The Scania combines the presence of a full-size truck hearse with the added practicality of passenger seating.
The design of the Scania pays tribute to our ERF EC12 and Renault Magnum hearses, carefully capturing and mirroring their unique characteristics while offering its own individual role within PNW Carriage Masters.
It has been created to sit naturally alongside our existing truck hearses, giving families another meaningful choice when planning a personal and memorable final journey.
The Scania Double Cab Hearse can be especially fitting for families who want to travel together as part of the funeral journey. It may also suit someone with a strong connection to haulage, transport, logistics, engineering, trucks or road life.
Its passenger capacity makes it different from a conventional hearse and allows the journey itself to become a more personal part of the day.
Families may choose the Scania because it offers a more intimate and personal experience. Rather than following separately, selected family members can travel in the vehicle itself, accompanying their loved one on The Final Journey.
This can make the funeral feel more connected, especially when the journey has particular meaning to the family or to the person being remembered.
Our Scania Double Cab Hearse is supplied to work alongside the funeral director and the wider funeral arrangements already in place. As with all of our specialist hearses, the aim is to provide a vehicle that complements the day professionally, respectfully and with the right presence.
Passenger arrangements, timing, route, venue access and the overall tone of the service all need to be considered carefully. The Scania is provided as part of a dignified final journey, not simply as a display vehicle.
Our specialist hearses are supplied exclusively for the funeral profession. We work with funeral directors to confirm availability, discuss the location and service details, and help ensure the chosen vehicle is suitable for the funeral plans.
Where family members wish to travel in the Scania, we can discuss the practical arrangements with the funeral director so that the vehicle is used appropriately and respectfully on the day.
Our Scania Double Cab Hearse is available for funeral hire across the UK mainland. We are based near Chester, close to North Wales and North West England, but can provide specialist truck hearse hire much further afield, depending on the date, the location and the vehicle required.
