Direct Cremations

Let us take the burden off your shoulders with no-service cremations.

A direct cremation is a straightforward, no-service cremation without mourners present.

It provides a respectful farewell at a lower cost, giving families the freedom to arrange a personal memorial, in their own time, in their own way.

A direct cremation is more affordable than traditional funerals. They are simple, stress-free and flexible, allowing you to say goodbye in private.

We serve Lancaster, Morecambe, Heysham and surrounding areas, including:

  • Carnforth
  • Halton
  • Caton
  • Galgate
  • Forton
  • Garstang

Yes. We only use Lancaster & Morecambe Crematorium. We never transport loved ones outside of the local area.

You can choose to:

  • Have the ashes returned to you in a container.
  • Have them scattered at the cremation.
  • Scatter them yourself.
  • Choose a container you would like your loved one in and we will transfer them in it for you.
  • Inter them at a cemetery or memorial site.

We are more than happy to guide you through your options at any time.
