Direct cremation is a practical, alternative, and lower-cost option when compared to a traditional funeral service. The Deceased is first cremated without any initial service or procession. A memorial service can then be held, if desired, following the cremation, and at a time, date and location more convenient, and perhaps more fitting.
Yet, people spend several thousand dollars on cremation and funeral services. Funeral homes also offer direct cremation services. This is the least expensive method because it is a simple yet dignified way to prepare for the final disposition of the dead. According to the Cremation Research Council, the average cost of a direct cremation is $1,100. This process does not include a traditional funeral service involving viewing of the body before cremation. Consequently, you do not need to spend on a casket and embalming of the body.
