DIRECT CREMATION

One Fixed Price Including All Cremation Fees

£999*

Direct cremation is offered to answer the specific requests of families who choose the most simple, dignified and economical means of arranging their loved-one’s funeral.

This is a lower-cost option and practical alternative when compared to a traditional funeral service.

The Deceased is first cremated without any initial service or procession.

A memorial service can then be held, if desired, following the cremation, and at a time, date and location more convenient, and perhaps more fitting.

What our Direct Cremation Package Includes;

Continual guidance and support at this most difficult time

There are some important forms that will need to be filled in, signed, and returned, this will include the agreement and an application for cremation. This can be done at our premises by post or email.

Use of our chapel of rest

Collection from hospital, private home, nursing/care home between 9am and 5pm

Oak veneer coffin fitted with 6 handles and coffin plate suitable for cremation

Transfer to the crematorium in our specialist vehicle

Cremation fees for an unattended cremation at Sittingbourne or Golders Green

Delivery of Ashes, Collection of Ashes, or scattering of the ashes at the Crematorium Gardens

The cremation process is exactly the same as for more traditional services – everyone is cremated individually and the ashes are carefully collected at the end for the handing over to the bereaved.

Get help with funeral costs

You could get a Funeral Expenses Payment (also called a Funeral Payment) if you get certain benefits and need help to pay for a funeral you’re arranging.

* There maybe additional Doctors fees of £164.00 required, which we are unable to confirm until we have collected your loved one.

If you require any further specific information regarding assistance with funeral payments we will have happy to discuss with you.

 

In order for us to keep our costs down we do require cleared funds three days prior to the funeral taking place. (Excluding DWP Applications)

     

This can be made by either bank transfer, debit/credit card.

For collections outside of Kent (London and Essex) an additional £200 will apply for collecting your loved one.
