Deciding between a funeral or cremation?
Funerals aren’t for everyone
Some families know they do not want a formal funeral service. Others simply need time before deciding how they would like to farewell someone.
Direct cremation gives you that space. We take care of the cremation first, without the pressure of organising a service, viewing or gathering straight away. You can hold a memorial later, gather privately, or choose not to have a service at all.
For families looking for a simple cremation or affordable funeral option in Auckland, Value Cremations keeps the essentials clear: one all-inclusive package, local support, and the freedom to farewell in your own time.

Not sure what to do first?
If someone has died and you are not sure what to do, call us on 0800 825 832.
You do not need to have everything worked out before you call. We can explain the next step, what information is needed, and whether arranging online or talking it through by phone will be easiest.
