Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

What is a direct cremation?

A direct cremation is a simple, unattended cremation that takes place without a funeral service or mourners present. It allows you to say goodbye in your own way, at a time and place that feels right for your family.

Is the £1,000 price really everything?

Yes. Our £1,000 price includes collection, all paperwork, a simple coffin, the cremation itself and the return of ashes. There are no hidden costs or surprise fees added later.

Which areas do you cover?

We are a local, family-run business serving families right across the North West. Wherever you are in the region, we can help — just give us a call.

Can we still hold our own memorial?

Absolutely. Many families choose a direct cremation precisely because it gives them the freedom to arrange their own memorial or celebration of life, in their own time and their own way.

When will we receive the ashes?

Once the cremation has taken place, we will return your loved one's ashes to you, or scatter them with our care if you prefer. We'll keep you informed at every stage.

Do you offer payment options?

Yes. We understand that costs can come at a difficult time, so please ask us about flexible, interest-free payment options when you get in touch.
