Simple cremations, also known as direct cremations, are a funeral option that’s becoming increasingly popular. Let’s look at Simple Cremations UK in more detail….
Choosing a cremation service can be a difficult decision, particularly if you’re not sure what the most suitable option for your loved one is.
The first decision you’ll need to make is what sort of service you want – if any.
There are two main types of cremation: direct cremations and traditional cremations.
Direct cremation is the simple option, which doesn’t involve a funeral service.
Instead, the body is cremated, and the ashes are returned to the family within ten days, something which we offer here at our crematorium in Burntwood, South Staffordshire.
A traditional cremation is probably the one that you know more about, where a funeral service is included as part of the cremation. In a traditional cremation, the funeral service takes place, and the cremation then takes place, with the ashes then being returned to the family to scatter or bury as you wish.
Once you decide on the type of cremation that’s right for you and your loved one, you can start to decide on the other details.
Simple Cremation
If you are looking for a simple cremation near you, there are a few things you should keep in mind. By understanding the different options available, you can choose a cremation service that is right for you and your family.
The benefits of choosing a simple cremation include:
- The cost – it’s much cheaper than a traditional cremation or funeral because it doesn’t involve the funeral service
- It’s environmentally friendly
- It can be a more personalised experience as you have more flexibility to do things as you wish in your own time
- It can be more meaningful as you don’t have to rush any decisions and you can include all the people you want to be involved in the process
A simple cremation isn’t for everyone but it’s something that is worth considering. It’s a service that has become increasingly popular in recent years as more and more people move away from traditional funeral services for various reasons.
At We Are Direct Cremations, we’re always happy to discuss our services with you to help you decide whether it’s something you want to proceed with or if you might opt for other plans.
How Much Does A Simple Cremation Cost?
We’re often asked what other families’ experiences are of direct cremations – which is perfectly understandable.
For many people, arranging the final wishes of a loved one isn’t something you have much experience in and it’s only right that you look for help and advice wherever possible.
When it comes to simple cremations, cost is a hugely important factor for many families. They start at just £1050, so they’re much cheaper than traditional cremations and offer a lot more flexibility.
Direct cremations are increasingly popular because of the flexibility they offer, as well as being a low-cost cremation option.
They’re not necessarily for everyone, though, and if you’re looking for a more traditional cremation service that includes a service so that people can attend, we’re here to help with that too.
And when it comes to traditional services, there are plenty of different choices you can make, whether you’re looking to keep costs down or whether you have specific requirements, we have options to suit everyone.
At We Are Direct Cremations, we ensure that you never have to compromise between cost and quality – we can find low-cost solutions that still provide you with the standard of cremation and service that you’re looking for.
