Things to Consider When Comparing Providers

All-Inclusive Pricing
Every cost related to your cremation is included upfront, from collection to cremation fees—no hidden charges, ever. Unlike other providers, we’ll never charge for collection regardless of the distance, and the removal of medical devices that may affect the cremation, such as pacemakers, is always included at no extra cost.
Free Cancellation Anytime
Change your mind? You can cancel your Aura plan at any time and receive a refund with no admin fees. Many providers allow free cancellations within the first 30 days but apply a fee after that period. Some offer longer free cancellation windows depending on the payment plan, though charges may still apply once the set timeframe has passed.

Aura works with a network of peaceful, local care centres across the country to look after you with dignity and respect. This ensures a smooth and personal process, handled as close to home as possible.
