Our assessment

What we would take from the data

For Trent Valley Crematorium (Aston-on-Trent), The standard attended crematorium fee is £875, 17% below the UK database average. The site is recorded as private company, so ownership alone should not be treated as evidence that it is cheaper or more expensive. We did not find a lower comparable published fee among the other published records in Derbyshire. The right choice still depends on travel, availability and the type of service your family wants, not price alone.

A practical way to think about itWe would be comfortable keeping Trent Valley Crematorium (Aston-on-Trent) on the shortlist: its published fee is competitive, and the available same-county alternatives do not show a large saving.
How we reached this conclusion+

We used the published fee recorded for this crematorium, comparable fees in Derbyshire, the UK averages calculated from the currently publishable database, ownership information and whether a direct fee is available. We do not score facilities or service quality unless reliable evidence is recorded.

Choose by budget

What route fits your overall budget?

The crematorium fee is only one part of the bill. These starting points help you choose what to investigate next rather than treating the crematorium fee as the whole funeral price.

Budget under £2,000

Direct cremation is the realistic starting point. Use the decision tool to check whether an unattended option fits your wishes.

Budget £2,000–£4,000

Compare direct cremation with a simple attended service. The funeral director's own fee will usually matter more than a small crematorium-price difference.

Budget above £4,000

A standard attended cremation funeral is more achievable, but itemise the quote and decide which extras genuinely matter to your family.
