Unwitnessed Direct Cremation

Direct cremation is a simple, dignified option for those who wish to say goodbye without a formal funeral service. It involves the respectful collection of your loved one, their cremation at a local crematorium, and the return of their ashes to you.

At The Cheshire Cremation Company, we take care of all the practical and legal arrangements with care and compassion. Our service includes:

• 24/7 collection from hospital, home, or care facility

• Careful preparation and cremation at a local crematorium

• All necessary paperwork and liaison with medical professionals

• Return of ashes by hand within 4 weeks

• Optional personal touches like dressing in chosen clothes

There is no service, ceremony, or attendees at the cremation, making it ideal for those who prefer privacy or wish to hold a separate memorial at a time and place that feels right.

We’re a family-run business led by Simon, David, Helen (a married couple), and Adam, dedicated to ensuring your loved one is treated with respect and kindness every step of the way.

If you have any questions before completing your booking, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
