The Cremation Carried Out The Way Your Expect

Misunderstanding, misrepresentation and outright fraud litter the history of pet cremation. This became clear to us when we first took over the pet crematorium.

If you want an individual cremation you most likely want your pet to be carefully handled and cremated on its own with all the ashes meticulously collected and returned to you. That is the way we have always worked and always will.

The main factor in the process is care. Care about the way we handle your pet; Care about the way we carry out the cremation; Care about the way we collect all the ashes after the cremation; Care about the way we present the ashes and Care about you.

At Chestnut Lodge Pet Crematorium we always work as if you are with us every step of the way

To give you the maximum confidence we have now been inspected and approved by an independent company to show that we describe everything that we do accurately and that our technical procedures match those descriptions and meet the high standards of the APPCC Code of Practice.
