Compassionate Farewells with Over 40 Years of Combined Experience
At Severn Valley Direct Cremation, we are a family-run service with over 40 years of combined experience, offering dignified, affordable, and truly local care to families across Telford, Bridgnorth, and the Severn Valley.
We believe that a final journey should be taken with care, in familiar surroundings, and close to home. That’s why all cremations are arranged and carried out locally — never transported across the country or handled by call centres. From the first phone call to the return of ashes, your loved one remains in the care of our professional and compassionate team at all times.
What Makes Us Different?
We offer complimentary chapel visits during chapel hours, giving families the opportunity to say a private and personal goodbye. Unlike national providers, we’re here to support you face-to-face — with honesty, warmth, and respect.
Whether you're planning ahead or arranging a cremation today, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
