Cremation only is a service offered by a select number of funeral directors throughout Australia. The service is provided without the typical offerings of flowers, fancy caskets and the like. If burial is preferred, a burial only is also an option available to families. The cost of a cremation only service will vary depending on your location. In Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide a cremation only service will range from $2,500 to $3,500. In Brisbane, Perth an Hobart a cremation only service will range from $3,000 to $4,000.
