Direct cremations in Brighton are gaining traction as a cost-effective and straightforward alternative to traditional funerals. They are appealing primarily because they are economical, simple, and private, offering a hassle-free way to arrange a farewell.

 

A direct cremation eliminates the need for a service; thus, there is no formal funeral. The process involves minimal paperwork, which can be completed in our office in Brighton & Hove or sent via email for you to print, sign, and return. At Brighton Direct Cremation, we are ready to provide any necessary guidance.

 

Full payment must be received before the direct cremation is booked.  In some instances we may ask for it before collection is made, except where collection is made form a private residence.  Once payment is confirmed, we can proceed with the arrangements.  Whilst the registration of the deceased might remain the most challenging part for you, but we can assist in making it as smooth as possible.

 

You may collect the ashes from the local Crematorium whenever it suits you, or under special circumstances, from our premises in Brighton. For an extra cost we may also be able to arrange to deliver the ashes directly to your home. Our clients appreciate the simplicity of direct cremations, often opting out of traditional funeral extras.

 

A direct cremation is essentially a funeral without a service. It's a less expensive alternative that allows families to commemorate their loved ones in their own way, such as through a memorial or a celebration of life at a later date. These gatherings can vary from parties to intimate services at various locations.

 

The rising popularity of direct cremations is making it easier to find providers offering these services. However, caution is advised as the market includes numerous online providers with varying degrees of transparency.

 

For those looking to find a reputable funeral director, it's essential to conduct a local search to ensure they are genuinely nearby, as some claim to be local but operate from afar. At Brighton Direct Cremation, as experienced independent funeral directors, we recommend choosing a provider with solid credentials and local standing.

 

As members of the Society of Allied & Independent Funeral Directors and the Good Funeral Guide with over a decade of experience, we advocate for using independent funeral directors for personalized and high-quality service. 

 

To choose a funeral director, consider consulting reviews, making enquiries about their professional qualifications, and discussing directly with them to gauge their expertise and reliability.
