funeral costs
What is the cheapest funeral?
For most families, a direct cremation is the simplest and usually the lowest-cost funeral option.
You may also hear it called:
- bare cremation
- simple cremation
- unattended cremation
- no-service cremation
A direct cremation generally means the person is cremated without a traditional funeral service taking place beforehand. It does not mean the funeral has to be impersonal or that the family cannot hold a farewell later.
One of the reasons Rest offers simple funerals is that families should be able to spend money on the parts of a farewell that actually matter to them, rather than paying for things they do not want.
