Ease the Burden: The Comfort and Convenience of Online Cremation Arrangements

In the immediate wake of losing a loved one, the world can feel overwhelming. Dealing with necessary arrangements often adds significant stress to an already profound time of grief. Our experience has shown us that what most families truly need is a process that is both dignified and simple—a way to handle the practical necessities from a place of comfort and quiet reflection, not a rushed office meeting. This is the guiding philosophy behind the Sensible Choice Online Package: to provide a straightforward, affordable direct cremation service managed entirely from the privacy of your own home.

Our online arrangement model is specifically designed to alleviate the pressure of traditional funeral planning. By leveraging modern digital tools for documentation and communication, we streamline the entire process, which in turn allows us to significantly lower the overall cost and pass those savings directly to you. The goal is to give you more time to focus on what truly matters: your family, your memories, and your own path through grief.

The Digital Difference: Arranging from Home

A question we often hear from families is: “How does handling this process online actually work, and is it truly simpler?” We understand that entrusting such a sensitive process to a digital platform can feel unusual, but the convenience is substantial. Our system is built for families who are comfortable using email and digital signatures to handle the required documentation. This digital efficiency removes the need for multiple in-person meetings, allowing you to move through the steps at your own pace, on your own schedule.

The core of this straightforward process is our all-inclusive Sensible Choice Cremation Package . For an all-inclusive price of $1,525.00, this package includes all necessary services, the essential merchandise, and all third-party disbursements, ensuring the price you see is indeed the price you pay—no surprises.

To give you a clearer understanding of how the core services are streamlined in this package, here is a breakdown of the itemized costs that lead to our affordable, all-inclusive rate:

  • Professional and staff services: $200
  • Documentation (including completion of legal forms and permits): $50
  • Minimum preparation of remains (basic care for safe handling): $100
  • Facilities for preparation/shelter (use of prep room and refrigerated sheltering): $100
  • Initial transfer of remains from the hospital to our holding facility: $200
  • Administration vehicle (for errands and document delivery): $50
  • Final transfer of remains to the crematorium: $200
  • Cremation Fee at North Toronto Crematorium: $695

In addition to these services, the total cost also covers essential merchandise, such as the Victoriaville Cardboard Cremation Container, and the temporary cardboard container for the cremated remains. Finally, all required disbursements are also included, which consist of the Coroner’s Cremation Certificate fee of $75, the Municipal Death Registration Fee of $45, and the Bereavement Authority of Ontario (BAO) Consumer Protection Fee of $30. By bundling all of these elements—services, merchandise, disbursements, and all applicable taxes—into one transparent price, we offer a significant discount on the total cost of $2,084.85, resulting in the final package price of $1,525.00.

Personal Support is Always Available

Choosing an online process does not mean you sacrifice personal support. In fact, we structure our service to ensure that a compassionate funeral director is available 24/7 to provide guidance and answer your questions whenever you need it. We recognize that immediate needs arise, and our team is ready to provide support, including initial aftercare information. For families in Richmond Hill and the surrounding communities, this constant accessibility means you are never truly alone in navigating the process, even at 3 a.m. when grief can feel heaviest. For immediate assistance, you can always call us at 647-984-5158.

Planning for the Future: Easing the Future Burden

Another powerful way to ease the burden on your family is through pre-planning. Many families find immense peace of mind in knowing that the arrangements are taken care of, and their loved ones will not have to make difficult decisions during a time of immediate grief. When you choose to pre-plan your direct cremation with us, you can lock in today's affordable rate, guaranteeing the current package price for a full six months. This step is a thoughtful gift to your family, ensuring that the financial and logistical aspects are handled ahead of time.

The process for planning ahead is as simple as our at-need arrangements, providing the same level of care and detail. You can start your online arrangement today and take that first step toward peace of mind.
