A Cremation Without the Cost of a Traditional Funeral
An unattended cremation takes place without a funeral service or mourners present. It provides a simpler alternative for people who do not want the formality, immediate decisions or cost associated with a traditional funeral.
Your family can still choose to remember the person who has died in a way that suits you. You might hold a memorial later, gather privately, scatter the ashes somewhere meaningful or arrange no formal event at all.
For families spread between Bendigo, Melbourne and regional communities, this also removes the need to bring everyone together at short notice. A farewell can be planned later, when people have time to travel and take part.

How a Bendigo Cremation Is Arranged
1. Tell us what has happened
Begin online or call 1300 262 797. We will ask where the person who has died is located and help guide you with the process from here.
2. We arrange collection
Our team contacts the hospital, aged care facility, Coroner or relevant person and arranges for the person who has died to be brought into our care.
3. We guide you through the paperwork
We explain what information and documents are required, complete the necessary arrangements and register the death.
4. The cremation takes place
The person who has died is cared for professionally until the unattended cremation is carried out.
5. We return the ashes
You can purchase an urn from our selection, or speak to us about something customised. We’ll then have them delivered to your nominated postal address anywhere in Australia.
Collection from Bendigo and Surrounding Areas
Where the person has died can affect how quickly collection is required. Hospitals, aged care facilities and the Coroner generally have appropriate holding facilities, which may give our team more flexibility when coordinating regional travel.
If someone has died at home, on a rural property or somewhere without suitable facilities, please call us as soon as you are ready. We will consider the location, travel time and our team's availability before confirming an appropriate collection timeframe.

Prepaid Cremation in Bendigo
A prepaid cremation allows you to document your wishes and pay for the cremation before it is needed. This locks in the cremation cost at today's price and can leave fewer financial and practical decisions for your family later.
Prepaid cremations cost $2,135 including GST throughout Victoria. The price does not change based on whether you live in Bendigo, another regional community or metropolitan Melbourne.
