Arrange An Unattended Direct Cremation

This is our simplest send off, and therefore our lowest cost option. It’s a cremation that goes ahead without a funeral service or family and friends attending the crematorium. It’s as straightforward as it sounds, but that doesn’t make it any less dignified or respectful.

The deceased is taken care of in our mortuary in our Swindon funeral home, then the coffin is transported by hearse and accompanied by our team to Kingsdown Crematorium where the cremation takes place.

Afterwards the ashes can be collected from us, or can be scattered in the Garden of Remembrance at the Crematorium.

Our Unattended Direct Cremation costs: £1,945
