Answers to common questions about direct cremation, pricing, and what to expect — explained simply and honestly.
Direct cremation is also called Private Cremation or NSNA (No Service No Attendance).
Cremation is a simple and respectful.
The person is taken from the place of death to a certified crematorium, where their body is held in mortuary storage for a few days whilst the necessary legal and medical documentation is obtained.
They are then placed into a simple cremation coffin and cremated.
In all honesty, our price is not "cheap" but it IS "fair".
We do not have bricks and mortar premises to pay for, we don't have fancy offices and we don't own our own fleet of hearses or display rooms of coffins.
Our overheads are very low and we pass on those savings to you.
We use a simple cremation coffin which is made of compressed MDF wood.
The cost of this coffin is included in our price; they're $165.
It is fairly simple information needed, but can sometimes take a while to collect.
These are the main things needed :
No.
The price shown is the final price.
Whilst it is true that there are small fluctuations in cost (for example if someone dies on a public holiday, or if they have a pacemaker that needs to be removed), we absorb these fluctuations so that you don't need to worry about them.
The Official Death Certificate is issued by the NSW Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages.
It is sent by their office by registered post approximately 3 weeks after the day of cremation.
After the cremation the ashes are usually available within about 3 weeks.
We will arrange payment before the cremation takes place.
You can pay by :
Almost every funeral director in Sydney uses expert transfer partners for collection and delivery of the deceased.
These are expertly trained people using specialist vehicles and equipment - available 24/7.
The staff are respectful, caring and well presented with quality uniforms and PPE (Personal Protective Equipment).
If the death happens at home, they will gently and respectfully talk family through how they will move the person.
A trolley is almost always used which is similar to the one's in an ambulance.
Yes.
There are very strict protocols and processes at the crematorium. There are always 2 staff members on site to double check the paperwork and ensure the correct workflow is followed.
The cremation chamber, also called a "Retort" will only take one coffin at a time.
Each cremation takes around 2-3 hours and when finished, the ashes are carefully collected and labelled.
The Retort is cleared completely between each cremation.
That's fine, we can manage this for you. Just let us know your instructions and we will follow them.
No extra charge from us.
We’re always here to talk things through.
