Direct Cremation LA

A simple, dignified cremation without a formal funeral service beforehand. We take your loved one into our care, handle all paperwork and permits, carry out the cremation privately, and return the ashes to you — all for one complete price.

Transportation into our care, all required legal documents and permit filing, secure refrigeration, the private cremation, return of the ashes, and 24/7 counselor support. No hidden fees.

No hidden fees. The only things beyond the $1,195 are entirely your choice: extra certified death-certificate copies (county, nominal fee) and clearly-priced optional services like witness cremation — never required.

Immediately. We're available 24/7 — call (213) 818-7115 any hour and a counselor will guide you through the first steps.

Your plan travels with you. We can either coordinate fulfillment with a partner provider in your new location, or you can transfer your plan to another provider under California pre-need law. Full terms are spelled out in your written agreement.

Yes. California law gives you cancellation and refund rights on pre-need cremation agreements. Specific terms — including any administrative or cancellation fee — are explained in writing before you sign. Nothing is locked in based on what you submit through this form.

Pre-need funds for California cremation arrangements are held in a state-regulated trust account, separate from our operating funds. Your contract will identify the trust, your account number, and your refund/cancellation rights.

The $300 difference covers the cost of holding your funds in trust over time, plus the administration of your written agreement and updates over the years. It also includes a price guarantee — even if our at-need price rises in the future, your plan price is locked at today's rate.

No. Submitting this form starts a conversation. Nothing is binding until you've received the written agreement, had time to review it, and signed it. California law requires written disclosure of all terms before any contract is binding.
