Direct Cremation Without Ceremony from £1355.00  Please discuss this option with your funeral director as we offer a choice of crematoria, but some incur additional costs due to their fees.  We offer a direct cremation without service, for families who prefer to have no service at the crematorium.  Instead, families can arrange their own personal goodbye or memorial at a later date when they disperse the cremated remains. Please note: as a direct (non-service) cremation does not include time for reflection and a goodbye at the crematorium chapel, information regarding the day the cremation takes place is provided only and no specific time is given on the confirmation.  We reserve the right to choose which day the cremation will take place.  The time the cremation takes place that day is at the discretion of the crematorium. Conveyance to the crematorium is at the discretion of Brunton Funeral Directors.  A funeral car or private ambulance will be used to transport the deceased.  The coffin will be taken through the front door of the chapel and onto the catafalque before being taken through to await cremation.  We reserve the right to choose the crematorium.  A direct non-service cremation is payable in advance, in full.  The applicant will be provided with a confirmation of arrangements, before the date of cremation, and a receipted invoice will be provided when payment is made.  All advice, administration, arrangements, removal from place of death (within driving distance of 20 miles), care of the deceased, a simple standard sized fully furnished cremation coffin, conveyance, and cremation fee are included.  

Bespoke funerals – please ask your funeral director for a quote.  If you would like newspaper notices, flowers, a special hearse, if an outsize, wicker or other special coffin is required, if after the funeral service you would like to return for a funeral tea or buffet meal – please discuss your requirements with your funeral director.  We will always do our best to accommodate your wishes and help you keep within the budget you set.

Pre-payment funeral plans – brochures and quotes are available on request.

From when we receive your call to the day of the funeral and beyond, help and guidance throughout the whole process will be provided.  You do not need to wait until the Death Certificate is issued to call.

You have the right to choose the Funeral Director you wish.
