A guide to help you choose a crematorium in the South West London and Surrey area for a cremation funeral. We can recommend the most appropriate crematorium depending on your requirements and budget. Please contact us to discuss the options and have your questions answered.
Timings: Each crematorium will have a standard service time of 30 or 40 minutes. However, this means that you will only have either 20 minutes or 30 minutes in the chapel respectively, as it will take 5 minutes either side of the service to get attendees seated and to leave the chapel.
Timings have to be strictly adhered to, as crematoria are operating busy timetables. If you require longer than 20 or 30 minutes for your service, we recommend to either book a double slot at the crematorium, or consider keeping the cremation service minimal and planning a Celebration of Life service at a venue personal to your loved one.
We can help advise as to the best way to plan and manage the funeral you want.
Costs: The standard cremation fees are provided below (correct as at 1st January 2019). These are based on a weekday service, a surcharge normally applies for Saturdays and Sundays. Additional options are also available from each specific crematorium website.
