What is a direct cremation?
A Direct Cremation, also known as an Unattended Cremation, is the most COST EFFECTIVE option for saying goodbye to a loved one. It is a practical and lower-cost alternative compared to a traditional funeral service.
It consists of a cremation only, no service and no funeral procession. You won’t have to deal with any funeral directors or think about a funeral process if you don’t want to, making the cremation process stress-free. A Cost Less direct cremation gives you the freedom to hold a ceremony in your own time, in the way your loved one would have wanted. Many of our customers choose to have a memorial service at a later time and location to say a fitting goodbye to their loved ones.
After you contact us, we pick up your loved one and bring them into our care. When your paperwork is completed online, we transport them to the crematorium at Lake Mulwala for cremation. We will return your loved ones ashes to you (via Registered mail), or they can be scattered by the crematorium.
Our specialist cremation staff are available 24 hours, 7 days a week to assist you with the application process.
