Cremation

A Preferred Choice for Many Families

Cremation is increasingly chosen by a majority of families over traditional burials, primarily due to its lower cost. At Parramatta Funerals, we offer two distinct cremation options to meet the diverse needs of the families we serve

Cremation Options

At Parramatta Funerals, we provide two main cremation options for families:

Direct Cremation

Also known as a "no service, no attendance cremation" (NSNA), this option involves taking the deceased to a private crematorium without family presence. This is often the most affordable choice for families.

  • Comprehensive Support: We handle all the paperwork and administrative details to alleviate stress on the family.

  • Optional Viewing: Families can still arrange a viewing before the cremation.

  • Personal Touches: Families may send mementos or precious possessions to accompany their loved one.

  • Flexible Memorial Planning: This option allows for a memorial service to be held later at a time and place that best suits the family’s needs.

Cremation with Funeral Service

This option includes a service in a chapel, crematorium, or church, followed by cremation.

  • Service Arrangement: The coffin can either be placed before the service or carried in at the beginning.

  • Cremation Process: After the service, the crematorium proceeds with the cremation.

  • Post-Service Gathering: Many crematoriums provide facilities for refreshments, offering convenience for attendees.

Cost of Cremation Services

  • Starting Price: Cremations start at under $3,000

  • Variable Costs: Costs may increase based on additional services and inclusions selected by the family
