Private Cremation
A private cremation (or direct cremation) is a simple funeral for people who don't want a funeral service. It is the simplest form of cremation.
Our private cremation has two main options
- The private direct cremation and
- The private direct cremation with a simple committal.
.
Private Cremation by Natural
A Private Direct Cremation is without a formal ceremony. A direct cremation removes the formality of a traditional funeral service and procession, ideal for those that do not want a fuss when they are gone or would prefer a memorial service at a later time separate from the cremation.
A Private Direct Cremation with a committal service is a respectful way to say goodbye. A few words are spoken and a better coffin with flowers are provided but it is not as formal as a full service.
A direct cremation prepaid funeral is one of the most cost-effective ways of paying for a funeral in advance. The cost of this cremation only prepaid funeral can be paid in a single payment or spread across monthly instalments.
