Why quoted prices differ
Canadian providers price cremation in different ways. These are the factors that move the figure, so you can compare like with like.
Cremation type
Private (individual) cremation costs more than communal, because your pet is cremated alone and the ashes returned to you.
Your pet's weight
Most Canadian providers price by weight band, so a larger pet costs more than a small one.
Collection and travel
Home or vet collection, and travel to and from your area, are often charged on top of the base price.
Urn and memorial extras
A basic container is usually included; a chosen urn, keepsakes or a paw print are typically extra.
