A simple, affordable and dignified option. No formal service, no unnecessary costs. Your loved one is cared for with the same respect as every farewell we conduct.
A direct cremation is the simplest form of cremation. There is no funeral service, no chapel booking and no large gathering. Your loved one is collected, cared for with dignity, and cremated. The ashes are then returned to your family.
Many families choose a direct cremation because it is affordable, uncomplicated and allows them to hold a private memorial or celebration of life in their own time and on their own terms. It does not mean less care. It simply means fewer formalities.
Your dedicated Funeral Support Manager still handles everything personally, from collection of your loved one, to paperwork, to the return of ashes. You are never left without support.
We collect your loved one from the place of passing, whether that is a hospital, aged care facility, private home or coroner's office, at any time of day or night.
Your loved one is treated with the same dignity and respect as every person in our care. They are looked after in our private facilities until the cremation takes place.
Death certificates, cremation permits, medical referee paperwork and any other legal requirements are handled entirely by us.
A simple, dignified coffin suitable for cremation is included in our direct cremation service. Alternate options are available if preferred.
All crematorium charges are included. We work with crematoriums across Sydney and can accommodate your preferred location where available.
Your loved one's ashes are returned to you in a standard container. We also offer a selection of urns and keepsakes if you would like something more personal.
