Direct Cremations
Unattended funeral options in Macclesfield, Cheshire
A direct cremation is a simple, unattended cremation and is best suited for those who have deceased without relatives or for families who want a simple, straightforward farewell, without any viewing of the loved one, ceremony, procession or mourners present.
Due to the simplicity, direct cremations are a more affordable and basic option, but at Andrew Smith Funeral Services, we believe simplicity should never come at the expense of dignity; our direct cremation option provides reassurance, transparency and respectful care throughout.
