McGuinness Funeral Homes serves the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania metropolitan area through two locations in Gloucester County, New Jersey, on the South Jersey side of the Delaware Valley. The locations are situated in Woodbury and Sewell, with service extending across Washington Township and the surrounding communities of Gloucester County.

Certified celebrants are available at both locations.

McGuinness Funeral Homes - Woodbury is a standalone funeral home in Woodbury, New Jersey, founded in 1950 by James A. McGuinness Sr. and his wife Marie L. McGuinness. The facility occupies a structure originally built in the late 1700s, later restored and rebuilt for use as a funeral home, and includes a chapel with accommodations for identification and private viewings.

McGuinness Funeral Homes - Sewell is a standalone funeral home in Sewell, New Jersey, established in 2002, serving Sewell and the broader Washington Township area of Gloucester County. In addition to a chapel and viewings, the facility includes dedicated reception and event space for families who wish to hold catered gatherings as part of their arrangements.

Families selecting between the two locations may consider proximity to their community within Gloucester County, the availability of on-site reception and event space, or specific service needs such as veterans arrangements. Both locations coordinate directly with Gloucester County Veterans Memorial Cemetery for veterans services, and both include a chapel accommodating private and identification viewings. Reviews across both locations reflect a consistent pattern of families identifying individual staff members by name, a market-level signal of personal attention at the team level.
