McCallum & Tritton Funeral Directors has been serving the communities of North Merseyside for over 70 years, having conducted their first funeral in 1953. Founded through the partnership of Douglas McCallum and Charles Tritton, the business has built an enviable reputation for quality, underpinned by a compassionate and highly professional approach to funeral arrangements. The Bootle branch is located at 510 Stanley Road and forms part of the company's commitment to serving the people of the wider North Merseyside area.
The company is now run by Andrew Stones, who joined as a partner in 2011 following 42 years with the firm, and he continues to uphold the founding principles established by Charlie, Douglas, and Eileen. He is supported by qualified funeral directors David Bray and Ainsley Ottley. The team is well-established, with most staff having been with the company for many years.
McCallum & Tritton offer a comprehensive range of services, from simple direct cremations to more elaborate funerals, including horse-drawn vehicles and motorcycle hearses on request. Their fleet of Mercedes hearses and limousines has been maintained for over 40 years. Eco-friendly wicker and cardboard coffins, pre-paid funeral plans, and a 24-hour personal service are also available, ensuring every family's individual needs are sensitively catered for.
"Everything was treated with dignity and respect for my Mum and nothing was ever too much trouble, even during a difficult time for our family. They helped with a range of local suppliers which all helped to giving an amazing tribute to my Mum on the day of the service."
— James Pimblett
"Dave and his team were first class in everything that they done. Professional, compassionate, on call 24/7, empathetic and nothing was too much trouble for them."
— Shaun Oxby (about Dave)
"Being able to see mum at all hours of the day and night was way beyond our expectations. From start to finish the funeral, cars, flowers, service books — what a wonderful send off our queen was given."
— Julia Opuz (about Mike)
"Mike in the bootle office was so kind and caring and felt like he was part of the family the way he treated us and my dad. Shelly was amazing she was the director for my dads funeral and was always on the end of the phone if we needed her."
— Jenny Farrell (about Mike, Shelly)
"Mike especially went above and beyond for us all and he gave us everything we asked for and more. Mike you truly are a remarkable man and you are so kind, compassionate and caring. We felt like he was part of the family, the way he treated us and my Mum. Mike was only ever a phone call away too if we needed anything at all."
— Julia Opuz (about Mike)
"Dave was kind, compassionate, and incredibly organized—sending updates on what remained outstanding and checking in regularly. He takes this role far beyond just a job—he genuinely cares about each family he supports. Our family will never forget the kindness and compassion Dave showed us."
