Frequently Asked Questions

Read our full list of FAQs.

How affordable are direct cremations in Paisley?

Aura’s direct cremation services are an affordable alternative to traditional funerals. Our direct cremations in Paisley are available from £1,195; less than 50% of the average cost of last year’s traditional UK funeral, according to SunLife, which was £4,285. We know that suddenly needing to fund a funeral at short-notice can cause a lot of stress, and we’re here to support you through this time.

Can family attend a direct cremation in Paisley?

We are pleased to say that Aura offers the option to add a personalised attended ceremony, for those who want to bid farewell in person. Our attended direct cremations are available from £2,095, allowing you to organise a personal send-off at a local crematorium. We’ll even be able to help you find an independent celebrant or a religious minister to design a ceremony around the life of the person who has died, and to lead it on the day of their cremation, adding a personal touch to their funeral.

What happens in a direct cremation service in Paisley?

With an Aura direct cremation, the process is simple and dignified. The deceased is taken directly to the crematorium from where they are resting in a private ambulance. They’ll be brought into the chapel to the sound of music that they liked, and placed upon the catafalque. An attendant at the crematorium will speak a few words out of respect, and then, shortly after that, the cremation will go ahead. In Paisley, families can arrange for the ashes to be hand-delivered following the cremation for a nominal fee. Or, if you prefer, we can scatter them in the crematorium’s own Garden of Remembrance on your behalf.

Can I arrange a direct cremation in Paisley myself?

Yes, you can arrange a direct cremation yourself through Aura. Our experienced Angel Team will guide you through the process, ensuring that all necessary arrangements are made efficiently and with compassion. We understand that we all want to approach death in different ways, with some of us preferring to handle all the admin ourselves, and others feeling they need others to step in. Our compassionate Angels will tailor their support to your preferences, whilst ultimately making sure that all the paperwork is completed when it needs to be.

How long does a direct cremation take in Paisley?

All direct cremation services are as different as the people whom they commemorate, which makes it difficult to give you a time estimate at the outset. You can rest assured that we’ll work as hard as we can to complete things as quickly as possible without compromising on our quality. You’ll also be updated regularly by the Angels on their progress, and, should you need a specific update from your side, they will gladly receive your call.

Where will the cremation take place?

We provide a nationwide direct cremation service, working with a trusted network of crematoria and care centres across England, Scotland and Wales. While we do serve families in Paisley and the surrounding area, the cremation may not take place locally as part of our standard £1,195 package.

To keep our service simple and affordable, we arrange the cremation based on availability within our wider network. This helps avoid delays and allows us to offer the best possible value.

If it's important for you to choose a specific crematorium, we do offer that option for an additional cost. While we always aim to keep things as close to home as possible, your loved one may be cared for at one of our partner facilities a little further away.

No matter where the cremation takes place, your loved one will be treated with the utmost care, dignity and respect. If you'd like to discuss location options in more detail, our team is here to help.
