Direct Cremation in London
Liberty Cremations provides a simple, respectful, and caring direct cremation service to the people of London and the surrounding areas.
A Contemporary Approach
At Liberty Cremations, we combine traditional funeral arranging expertise with a modern approach that many families seek. We are a local, family-run funeral provider, part of CPJ Field, a name synonymous with funeral excellence for over 300 years. We know that not all families want a traditional funeral.
So, our simple, dignified, and affordable direct cremation service offers families the freedom and flexibility to say goodbye in a way that suits them best. We serve all areas of London and will guide you through every step of the process, ensuring that it is as smooth and straightforward as possible.
What Direct Cremation Involves
A direct cremation includes all the essential aspects of the cremation process. This typically involves:
- The collection of your loved one
- Professional care and preparation
- All necessary paperwork
- A simple coffin, suitable for cremation
- The cremation itself
- The return of ashes to you
Because there is no formal service at the crematorium, the process is private, low-cost, and carried out with the utmost respect by our small, professional team. Many families choose direct cremation because it offers:
- A simpler, more relaxed farewell
- A lower-cost alternative to a traditional funeral
- The flexibility to hold a personalised memorial at a later date
- More control over timing and arrangements
- A practical and respectful option without unnecessary extras
