What is Direct Cremation? 

Direct cremation is cremation without ceremony and funeral services. After passing away, the body is taken directly to a crematory for the cremation process – there are no attendees, embalming, viewing, or visitation.

This can save families thousands of dollars as well as make the cremation process faster for families in case they need death certificates for estate matters.

  • Expensive Casket (The family can choose a simple and plain casket, which is more affordable.)
  • Embalming
  • Funeral Home Charges
  • Cosmetic and Dressing
  • Funeral Chapel or Church

Also, the environmental concerns of embalming have also made cremation and traditional burial less popular.
