Direct Cremation Services from £1595

Please contact us to discuss how we can help you with your wishes or your budget.

Direct cremation is a no fuss, no service funeral with no family or mourners present, these choices are becoming more common due to the rising costs of traditional funerals and also influential media advertising.

Due to the rise in media advertising surrounding these types of funeral geared mainly toward saving money, we wish to be transparent in sharing with the public and our customers how we differ and how we stand by and maintain the highest standards of professionalism, dignity and care no matter what the funeral service.

These are some of the practices we are committed to providing that differ from others nationally.

• Most importantly, we feel we need to express that your loved one will be treated with the same dignity and respect whilst in our care, and we ensure that the cremation will always take place at one of our local Crematoria here in Cornwall.

• You will have contact with us, personally, on all levels at all times.

• Our management and staff are on hand at all times, including collecting your loved one at any time of the day or night individually, retaining the upmost dignity.

• We use our specialist, dignified vehicles to transport your loved one to the crematorium, we believe in a respectful final journey.

• We will arrange for the Direct Cremation Service to take place as soon as possible or when suits you as a family.

• Though family and mourners are unable to attend Direct Cremation Services, (there are separate options at certain Crematoria in the county that allow attendance) we are willing to tell you when the service will be so that you are able to hold your own private vigil at home if you wish, or following Memorial Service, we feel this is important.

• If you so wish, you are able to collect your loved ones ashes as soon as they are available, this can sometimes be the same day, or next working day.

  Of course, because we always maintain the same values and standards of practice for all funerals you are able to tailor your complete funeral service to suit your family or your wishes. These can also be changed or added along the way, we understand that you may decide you would like to, (some services will incur an additional fee)

• Visit our Chapel of Rest to spend time with or view your loved one.

• Provide flowers to accompany their coffin.

• You may like to choose certain music for your loved one to enter the Chapel to.

• You may change to want to attend a simple service that you can attend at the Crematorium.

• You may like a different container for your loved one’s ashes or like them delivered by hand to you.

Please note, Cremations at Penmount Crematorium will incur additional cost. We can discuss this option with you
