Unattended Funeral

(often referred to as a Direct Cremation)

Our unattended funeral service is a respectful, dignified and low-cost funeral service without the presence of mourners.

Unlike many direct cremation providers, we collect the deceased from their resting place and take them just a short distance to our funeral home where they remain until the day of the unattended funeral service.  

Our unattended funeral services are conducted at a local crematorium, with the deceased respectively placed into an oak effect coffin and individually transported to the crematorium in a hearse.  A fully uniformed Funeral Director escorts the deceased into the Crematorium Chapel where they are placed on the catafalque (raised platform used to support a casket during a funeral) accompanied to music of theirs or their families choosing.  Our unattended funeral cremations always takes place soon after the person has passed away at a time of our choosing and without any unnecessary delays.  

Unlike many other direct cremations providers, we can offer a range of additional services (fees may apply) alongside our unattended funerals, this may include arranging funeral flowers to accompany the deceased on their final journey, chapel visits or a Celebration of Life service to allow families the option for a quiet, private farewell or to celebrate their loved ones life before or after the unattended funeral service takes place.
