What is Basic Funerals?
We are a licensed funeral home serving Ontario. In fact, we serve over 1,000 families every year. We do operate differently than a traditional funeral home but we provide the same services. We do basic cremations with no formal service as well as funeral services at cemetery chapels and other non-funeral home venues.

FAQs
Is this a complicated process?
No. We make the process as easy as possible. Start by getting a quote. It will take less than 2 minutes to complete.
Where are you located?
This question is often misleading. Our funeral directors serve families across Ontario independent of our physical address. Just so you know, our head office is in Mississauga.
Where will the cremation take place?
This is a better question. The cremation will usually take place at the crematorium closest to you. Sometimes there is a less expensive crematorium that is further away from you. The choice is always yours.
Why don't I just call the crematorium?
The crematorium cannot offer their services directly to the family. They offer services only to funeral homes such as ourselves.
Where will the funeral service or visitation take place?
Often at a chapel right at the crematorium (or in the case of a burial at the graveside). We also hold services and visitations at other non-funeral home locations such as churches and event venues.
