Funeral directors in South Lanarkshire

Compiled 15 August 2026. Last updated 15 August 2026.

Direct cremation in South Lanarkshire: from £899

A direct cremation is a cremation with no service and no mourners present. The funeral director collects the person who has died, arranges the cremation at a time set by the crematorium, and returns the ashes to you. You can hold a memorial separately, whenever and wherever you want.

The crematorium charges its own fee on top of the funeral director’s charges, £832 locally. Some firms include it in the price below and some add it, so check which applies before you compare two figures.

Desmond Maguire Funeral Directors (The Mill Funeral Home)

Trading since 2006

Independent

The business markets itself toward East Kilbride, Cambuslang and Uddingston customers from its two branches despite neither branch sitting physically in those towns.

Council fees in South Lanarkshire

The crematorium or burial fee is set by the council, not the funeral director, and is paid on top of the prices above.

How we built this list

Every price here comes from the firm’s own published price list or the council’s own published fees, with a link to the source and the date it was last verified. Where a firm publishes no price, we say so instead of estimating. No listing is paid for and none can be bought. Spotted something wrong?
