Direct Cremation Pre-paid Funeral Plan

The Best Priced Funeral Plan in Scotland.

A direct cremation—sometimes called an unattended cremation—is a straightforward, respectful option where your loved one is cremated without a formal service or attendees. It’s our most affordable plan, yet it upholds the highest standards of care and professionalism.

This choice is ideal for those who prefer simplicity or wish to keep costs low while ensuring dignity every step of the way.

Why choose our Direct Cremation Plan?

Unlike some providers, our plan is fully guaranteed. There are no hidden fees, no unexpected costs—your family will never be asked to pay a penny more when the time comes.
