What’s Included In Our Cremation Services
At A J Wakely & Sons, we understand that saying goodbye is deeply personal, and our cremation services in Yeovil are designed to provide a respectful, professional, and compassionate farewell for your loved one. As a family-run funeral director with over a century of experience, we are committed to supporting families with care, dignity, and thoughtful attention during one of life’s most challenging moments.
Our direct cremation service, starting from £2,150, offers a simple, unattended option for those who prefer a quiet and dignified process without ceremonial elements. This service includes the removal of the deceased from a local hospital or address, transportation to the crematorium, a simple coffin, and the completion of all necessary arrangements and documentation, ensuring everything is managed smoothly on your behalf. While the cremation takes place without attendance and does not include a hearse, limousine, or formal service, it is carried out with complete professionalism and respect. Ashes are returned in a simple container and made available for collection from our office.
Our commitment to the highest standards of care is reinforced through our professional affiliations with the National Association of Funeral Directors and the British Institute of Funeral Directors, offering families added reassurance. Throughout every stage, our compassionate team remains on hand to provide guidance, comfort, and support whenever it is needed.

The team at Sidmouth have been brilliant and helped us along the way with such kindness - they had a very large crowd to cope with and did everything so well. We recommend them highly
