Direct Cremation

Our Direct Cremation covers all that you’ll need for your loved one’s funeral, without any hidden costs. And while there’s no service, you can be confident that their funeral will be dignified, respectful and carried out to the highest standard.

Our direct cremations take place on an individual basis at our own crematoria or a crematorium of our choosing. We’ll let you know where this is so that you may collect the ashes, or if you prefer you can pay and extra charge to get the ashes hand delivered to you. You may then wish to have your own memorial for your loved one with friends and family at a later date.
