A direct cremation is the lowest-cost cremation option. The deceased is cremated without any ceremony and/or services, and the cremated remains are returned to the family in a temporary urn. This enables the family to ensure that their loved one’s disposition is handled in a simple, dignified, and timely fashion.
A family gathering for a memorial service can be held as and when the family chooses. An ash scattering or a keepsake urn can be alternative low-cost options once the direct cremation is performed.

I have been researching and writing about the death care industry for the past fifteen years. End-of-life services and experiences are topics most people avoid thinking about until they must face them. My work provides comprehensive and independent resources for families, explaining the workings of the funeral industry, the laws governing funeral practices, and the death care trends that impact consumers. With a BA in Cultural Studies, I bring a unique perspective to analyzing cultural death care rituals, complemented by a career background in Business Management. The death care industry is undergoing significant changes, which I find fascinating. The shift towards cremation services and the emergence of sustainable alternatives like aquamation and human composting are of particular interest. I am also intrigued by how technology is reshaping the funeral planning process and experience. I write for US Funerals Online and DFS Memorials LLC, and contribute to various forums and publications within the death care industry.
