Direct cremation Guide: Everything you need to know about Direct cremation


Direct cremation is the disposition option where the body is cremated immediately following the death of someone close to you. It takes place without a funeral service beforehand.Direct cremation is one of the most economical and easily affordable options for disposition.

Basic features of cremation without ceremony

Since direct cremation doesn't include any formal ceremony or pre-funeral events, much of the cost of a traditional funeral can be avoided.



  • The deceased body is cremated immediately after their death. This means you may engage the ceremony services directly rather than at a funeral home. This can save you a significant chunk of money.
  • The body is cremated in a simple container instead of an expensive casket.
  • You can hold a memorial service at a later date. This eliminates the need for expensive funeral arrangements and an expensive casket.
  • There is no wake, visitation, or viewing before the cremation, eliminating the need for embalming among other body preparations.


  • How to arrange a direct cremation?


    In many cases, the staff at the ceremony is able to handle the different aspects of the cremation including the transportation of the body to the ceremony, completion of the death certificate, and more. In addition, a cremator charges a fraction of the price than what funeral homes would charge for similar services.

    You can even work with funeral homes and plan a direct cremation. They will complete the death certificate while also transporting the body to the ceremony for a minimal fee, in addition to the basic fee that they charge for their services.

    Cremation Cost


    Direct cremation is one of the least expensive disposition options as some of the expensive purchases like casket, preparing the body, extensive transportation, and funeral services are avoided. Additionally, funeral homes might charge a lower “Basic Services Fee” for direct cremation.

    What is a funeral and do you end up overspending during funerals?


    No matter where a funeral is held, a funeral is supposed to be a structured ceremony where the ceremony will memorialize a deceased person. It is intended to engage the attendees in activities to provide mourners with a collective grieving experience to celebrate the life lived. It is also a socially acceptable way for the members of the community to re-affirm and express social attachments.

    The focus of funerals, no matter where they are held, lies in acknowledging the change. Without a doubt, humans, as a collective, have trouble dealing with changes in life such as the death of someone close to them. When you take this into perspective, it’ll become easier to understand the significance of ceremonially acknowledging the tear in the social fabric.

    How much do funeral services cost usually?


    An average funeral cost can cost anywhere between $7,000 and $12,000. This includes the basic service fees, viewing and burial, a casket, transporting remains to a funeral home, and other preparation.

  • Selection of cemetery or burial property
  • Unless your family already has a chosen or purchased a burial plot beforehand, the site of burial is an important area to look at.
     

  • Choosing a casket
  • While the casket is the most expensive purchase you’ll be making during planning the burial services, never choose a casket that doesn’t cost more than you can afford.
