The direct cremation service Harbour Funerals has rebranded to DirectCremation.co.uk, following its acquisition of Direct Cremation Limited in 2022.
Harbour Funerals, which has a history of providing affordable direct cremations in England and Wales, will focus on offering the best-rated direct cremation service under the rebrand.
As a result, the revamped website, https://directcremation.co.uk, includes an accurate price calculator and free guides to help clients deal with a bereavement.
Direct cremations have risen from 2% of all cremations just five years ago, as 18% of funerals were direct cremations in 2022.
With the average funeral now costing almost £4,000 and fewer people following organised religion, direct cremation offers significant cost savings, with prices starting from £895, and a more flexible approach for modern society.
In addition to the rebrand, the company has also recently launched London Funerals to provide affordable funerals in the Greater London area starting with its branch of funeral directors in Kingston-upon-Thames.
Steven Cains, founder of Harbour Funerals, said: “We have always strived to achieve the highest level of care and we’re proud to continue offering the same excellent service at an affordable price to more people.”
