Considerably — the listed direct cremation prices in Stockport start from around £1,240, against £2,075 upwards for a fully attended service, since a direct cremation skips the hearse, viewing and mourner-attended ceremony.
Funeral directors set their own prices, and the difference usually comes down to what's included — coffin quality, limousines, staff numbers and venue hire all add to the total, so it's worth comparing itemised quotes rather than headline figures alone.
