WHEN SOMEONE HAS PASSED AWAY
A Simplicity Cremation is a simple and low cost alternative to a traditional funeral. We take care of the practical elements of cremation, giving you the freedom to say farewell in a way that suits you and your loved one. From a simple direct cremation to a funeral with a family-led service, we can help you arrange an affordable funeral for someone who has already passed away. With crematoria located throughout Scotland, we can collect your loved one from anywhere within the mainland. No mileage fees apply.
PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE
Our funeral plans cover all of the practical elements of a funeral including 24/7 collection, care in our quality mortuary facilities, cremation fees and a simple coffin, meaning your loved ones are not burdened with the stressful arrangements or financial strain of organising a traditional funeral, allowing the focus to be on your farewell in accordance with your wishes.
Our affordable funerals provide you with all the practical and essential elements of a cremation, without having to pay for traditional ceremonial elements you might not want.
Traditional Funeral Directors put in a lot of time including face-to-face meetings to provide the funeral you ask for, and this is often reflected in the price.
Unlike arranging a traditional funeral, organising a Simplicity Cremation includes no Funeral Director involvement, allowing us to offer substantial savings in the funeral cost.
Instead of visiting a funeral home, all the funeral arrangements can be made over the telephone with help from our team of funeral professionals who are available 24/7.
Whilst our prices are considerably less than you would expect to pay for a traditional funeral in Scotland, rest assured you and your loved one will receive the highest level of care and service. At Simplicity Cremations, everyone gets the dignified funeral they deserve.
Unlike some funeral providers who only offer their funeral services within a certain radius of the main cities, we offer low cost funerals and direct cremation throughout all of mainland Scotland.

We have removed some of the more expensive elements, such as hearses, limousines and teams of pallbearers, which means we can provide our funeral services in Scotland for much less than a traditional funeral director.
How we're different
Our low cost funerals allow you the freedom and flexibility to say goodbye to your loved one in a way that suits you and your family.
If for you that means you’d prefer not to attend the crematorium, our Unattended Funeral may be the right option for you. The committal takes place supervised by a qualified chapel attendant, without any mourners present. You could instead choose to reminisce in your own way such as holding a beautiful tribute in honour of your loved one with the ashes at a later date.
Our Intimate Funeral provides a short time in the crematorium for a small group of family and friends (up to 12 people). This offers enough time for you to say a few words and say a personal goodbye to your loved one without the need to organise a funeral service.
If you would like the opportunity to organise a personalised ceremony, our Attended Funeral provides a full length service in the chapel for an unlimited number of people to attend, led by the family. Some families opt for engaging with the services of a minister or officiant, and organise a service in the way you would with a traditional funeral, whereas others prefer to do something a little less formal, such as spend the time playing a collection of their loved one’s favourite songs and sharing happy memories.

Say a unique goodbye
A Simplicity Cremation may be low cost, but this is not at the expense of our standards of service.
Without the cost of a hearse or limousines and the need to visit a Funeral Director, our prices are up to 76%* less than the cost of the average basic funeral. Instead of providing ceremonial elements that many do not see the value in, we give you greater choice in how you remember your loved one, with the focus on whether or not you’d like to attend the crematorium
Our low cost funerals are delivered to the highest standards. From the moment your loved one is collected to the day of cremation, every step of the process is carried out with dedication, expertise and compassion.
*The average cost of a basic funeral in the UK is currently £4,184 - SunLife (2021), Cost of Dying Report, sunlife.co.uk/costofdying2021
We deliver professional, respectful and low cost funeral services throughout Scotland, without cutting any corners. We have our own highly trained staff, use only specialist funeral vehicles, our own mortuary facilities and some of the UK’s leading crematoria.
Our high standards
All the staff I had to speak to were so understanding and considerate. I've never had to organise a funeral before and Simplicity took all the stress away for me.

An excellent service carried out by caring people. During Covid all arrangements were made online and via telephone. Couldn’t have been easier. Would highly recommend.

They explained the service they offered clearly as we had always had conventional cremations in our family. It was right for my husband as he wouldn’t have wanted a fuss , but the intimate cremation enabled our immediate family to be there to say goodbye
