When a death occurs anywhere in Hernando County, one call brings your loved one into our care. We serve Spring Hill, Brooksville and Weeki Wachee with local transport and dignified cremation for $1,095.
Spring Hill was built largely by families who moved down from New York and New Jersey, and a great many of them kept the family plot up north. Cremation here is very often the first half of a two-part plan: the cremation happens in Florida, and the interment happens at the cemetery the family has used for three generations, whenever everyone can gather.
The same price and the same inclusions everywhere we serve. It does not go up because of where you live or how far we have to drive.
Under hospice care: call your hospice nurse first, then call us, and tell the nurse your loved one is entrusted to Simple Affordable Cremations. We coordinate directly with the hospices serving Hernando County.
Not under hospice care: call 911 before calling us. Once officials give their release, we take your loved one into our care.
At a hospital or nursing facility: call us and name Simple Affordable Cremations as your funeral establishment. The facility handles the rest with us directly.
Yes. Hernando County is inside our regular Florida service area, including Spring Hill, Brooksville and Weeki Wachee. Transport is dispatched to the place of death anywhere in the county, and the phone is answered 24 hours a day at (239) 207-0390.
Our service fee is $1,095, the same in every county we serve. It covers transport into our care, sheltering, all permits and filings, the cremation itself, a temporary container named for your loved one, and the return of the cremated remains to your family in person. Three things sit outside it: certified death certificate copies at the Hernando County rate, the alternative cremation container Florida law requires, and a medical examiner fee if Hernando County charges one. All of them appear on your written price before you authorize anything.
No. Authorizations are signed electronically and every arrangement can be made by telephone and email, whichever state or country you are calling from. A large share of the families we serve in Hernando County are calling from somewhere else entirely.
Transport is usually dispatched while you are still on the telephone. How long the drive takes depends on where in Hernando County you are, and we will give you an honest estimate rather than a reassuring one.
Florida requires a mandatory waiting period before a cremation, and the medical examiner must authorize it, so most cremations happen within three to seven days of the first call. The variable is how quickly the death certificate is signed and authorized, not anything on our side.
A member of our staff, not an answering service. Whether you are calling from Brooksville or from another country, a licensed funeral director picks up. Deaths do not keep business hours and neither do we.
A licensed funeral director will call you back. For an immediate need, calling is faster and someone will answer.
