TRUSTED BY FAMILIES

What families say about Cleo

"I used Cleo Cremation for the funerals of my mother and her partner, who passed away a few days apart in April 2026. I didn't want a large, traditional funeral, but I knew my mother and her partner wanted to be cremated. I immediately contacted Cleo Cremation, which I hadn't heard of before. Paul and Sylvie were exceptionally kind and efficient. They were always gentle, a rare quality in our fast-paced world. I highly recommend this company. They even offer support for several months afterward."

"Incredible experience end to end. Like most people dealing with this type of company, I was in a massive tailspin dealing with an unplanned death — made more challenging because we were three hours away and needed to make arrangements locally for a funeral out of town. I called Cleo after a frustrating and confusing interaction with our intended funeral home in Gatineau. Megan answered my endless questions, giving me clarity in a tough time and clear direction on what we needed to do. The model is entirely online, with easy-to-understand forms and a direct line to call or text for real, human help. Cleo was accommodating end to end, including multiple calls to help with my many questions in a complex multi-province situation. Megan is a superstar — thank you so much! If you're worried this isn't legit, I assure you they are amazing, and this is the easiest, no-nonsense way to get the unfortunate but necessary work done for cremation and government paperwork. Stellar!"

Frequently Asked Questions

Direct cremation is a simple, dignified cremation without a funeral service or viewing beforehand. We pick up your loved one, handle all paperwork, perform the cremation, and return the ashes to you. This is the most affordable and straightforward option.

We operate entirely online and by phone, which eliminates the high overhead costs of maintaining physical funeral homes and showrooms. This allows us to offer the same dignified care at a fraction of the price, with transparent pricing and no sales pressure.

Absolutely. Direct cremation gives you the flexibility to hold a memorial service at any time and place that's meaningful to you—whether that's at home, in a park, at a community center, or anywhere else. Many families find this option more personal and less expensive than traditional funeral home services.

From the time you call us to receiving your loved one's ashes typically takes 5-7 business days. This includes time for required paperwork, the cremation itself, and delivery. We keep you informed throughout the entire process.

Not at all. Direct cremation is simply a different approach—it's dignified, respectful, and increasingly popular. Many families appreciate its simplicity and the flexibility it provides to honor their loved one in their own way, on their own timeline.

We hand-deliver the ashes to you locally, or arrange secure nationwide delivery. You can keep them in an urn at home, scatter them in a meaningful location, inter them in a cemetery, or divide them among family members. We'll guide you through your options and provide any documentation needed.
