Why Choose Simple Cremation Services?
In a world that often complicates even the simplest tasks, choosing a simple cremation offers a refreshing alternative. It’s a straightforward, respectful way to bid farewell to a loved one without the added expense or emotional burden of a grand ceremony.
Simple cremations focus on what truly matters – honouring the life of the departed in a modest yet meaningful manner. They provide an opportunity for friends and family to remember and celebrate without the stress of extensive planning or overwhelming financial costs.
Cost-Effective Solution
The financial aspect of a funeral can be overwhelming. With traditional funerals often costing upwards of $10,000, it’s no wonder many Australians are looking for more affordable alternatives. Simple cremation offers a solution. At Just a Simple Cremation, our services begin at just $2,550 including GST. This straightforward pricing allows you to focus on what’s important – saying goodbye.
Simplicity and Ease
One phone call is all it takes to arrange a simple cremation with us. Our compassionate team handles everything, from paperwork to the collection of your loved one’s ashes. We can make all necessary arrangements online or over the phone, and if you prefer, we’re happy to meet at our offices in Dandenong South.
Our services also include registering the death with the Victorian Office of Births, Deaths and Marriages, ensuring you receive an official death certificate within 3-4 weeks.
Flexibility and Personalisation
While the term ‘simple cremation’ might suggest a lack of options, that’s far from the truth. You can choose to have no service, or opt for a viewing in one of the serene reflections spaces at Bunurong Memorial Park. Our team works closely with you to ensure the farewell is as you envisaged.
For those who prefer to have ashes returned home, we offer collection within 72 hours of the cremation. Alternatively, we can deliver them to you for a small fee – a small comfort in a difficult time.
Environmental Considerations
Simple cremations are often considered a more environmentally friendly option compared to traditional burials. They require less land use, reduce the need for elaborate caskets and headstones, and minimise the use of embalming chemicals. It’s a considerate choice for those wishing to reduce their environmental footprint.
Emotional Relief
While cremation might initially seem like a sterile process, it can actually provide significant emotional relief. When someone close passes away, the pressure of planning an elaborate funeral can be overwhelming. A simple cremation allows you to focus on grieving and healing, rather than logistics and expenses.
Plus, without the distraction of a grand event, it’s easier to concentrate on personal, intimate farewells. You might find comfort in a small family gathering or a quiet moment of reflection.
Modern Convenience
The digital age has simplified many aspects of our lives, and funeral planning is no exception. Most arrangements for a simple cremation can be conducted online or over the phone. This modern approach means less time spent on administrative tasks and more time for what matters most – remembering your loved one.
Whether you’re near or far, the ease of organising a simple cremation remotely takes a significant burden off your shoulders during an already challenging time.

Opting for a simple cremation doesn’t mean compromising on dignity or respect. It’s about making a practical, heartfelt choice that honours the person’s life without unnecessary complications or costs.
At Just a Simple Cremation, we believe in providing compassionate, efficient and affordable services. If you’re yearning for a straightforward way to say goodbye, reach out to us. Let us help you navigate this journey with care and understanding.
