Guide to Direct Cremation

Direct cremation (or Unattended Cremation) is a simple and economical option provided by funeral homes for families who prefer a straightforward process when a loved one passes away.


This service typically involves the immediate cremation of the body without a formal viewing or ceremony.


It includes essential services such as the preparation and transportation of the body to the crematorium, the cremation itself, and the return of the ashes to the family in a basic urn.


Direct cremation allows families to save on costs associated with traditional funeral services while also providing flexibility for holding a memorial service at a later date, if desired.


This option caters to those who wish to focus on a more personal or private way of honoring their loved one's memory.


At Amethyst Funerals we know the importance of saying your final goodbyes to loved ones...so time with the Deceased in our Chapel of Rest is included in our Package.


We also offer the option of the use of our Chapel for Celebrant led Memorial Services before the Cremation for you to honour your loved one in your own way. (Limited Numbers)


Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need our assistance.
