What’s included in the direct cremation price?
The CMA Order requires the published direct cremation price to include the cremation fee, a simple coffin, transport, and the return of ashes.
Direct cremation, sometimes called cremation only or a no-service funeral, usually includes collection of the deceased, care before cremation, a simple coffin, transport to the crematorium, the cremation fee and return of ashes. It does not usually include a funeral service, procession, limousine, viewing or celebrant.
Prices vary because funeral directors use different crematoria, collection areas, staffing models and service levels. Always check the source price list and ask the provider what is included before making a decision.
Frequently asked questions
How much is direct cremation in West Midlands?
The median direct cremation, or cremation-only, price in West Midlands is £1,500, with captured published prices ranging from £25 to £2,260.
Can I filter direct cremation prices by cost in West Midlands?
Yes. Cost is one filter in the comparison, alongside distance, provider details, inclusion notes and the date of the source price list. Funeral Cost Index publishes comparison data; it does not recommend a specific provider.
Is direct cremation the same as cremation only in West Midlands?
Yes. Cremation only, simple cremation, unattended cremation and direct cremation usually mean the same basic product: cremation without mourners present and without a funeral service. Some providers sell a separate simple attended option, so compare the published price-list wording carefully.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No. Prices are captured from published CMA Standardised Price Lists and may change. Always verify the current price directly with the funeral director.
Other funeral costs in West Midlands
Prices sourced from each provider’s published CMA Standardised Price List, where available. Always verify directly with the funeral director before making decisions.
