Common questions
What Outremont families ask
Is Cleo's all-inclusive cremation price the full cost in Outremont?
Yes. What you're quoted in Outremont is what you pay: the price covers bringing your loved one into our care, the cremation itself, the Quebec documents, an urn, and the ashes returned to you in person. Nothing is added later for an evening, a weekend, or a form.
See current pricingHow quickly can Cleo collect my loved one in Outremont?
Phone us and we move straight away, day or night. Give us the address and we come to it: a house in Lower Outremont, a room in a care residence on Avenue Outremont, or one of the hospitals on Côte-Sainte-Catherine, the Jewish General and CHU Sainte-Justine among them. A real person is on the line, 24/7.
Step-by-step: arranging cremationCan I arrange a cremation in Outremont without visiting a funeral home?
Nothing about this requires a visit. You stay at home in Outremont, give us the details by phone or online, and the Quebec forms and permits get filed by us, not by you. We tell you as each piece is done. There is no showroom to walk through and no pitch to sit out.
How remote arrangements workDo you serve Outremont families in both French and English?
Yes, in either, and you don't have to decide up front. Whatever language you open the call in is the one we keep: on the forms, in the updates, and on the day we bring the ashes back to your Outremont address. Ask us to switch at any point and we will. Someone answers, 24/7.

Every death and cremation in Quebec follows a clear legal process, and Cleo takes care of all of it for Outremont families, correctly and in plain language.
We file the declaration of death with the Directeur de l'état civil du Québec, the provincial registrar that issues the official act of death.
The cremation takes place only at a licensed Quebec crematorium, under the Act respecting funeral activities, with careful identification throughout.
Quebec's consumer-protection rules require a clear, detailed price list. Ours is fixed and all-inclusive, given to you in writing before you decide anything.
If your family is considering scattering or interment on Mount Royal, at Notre-Dame-des-Neiges or Mount Royal Cemetery, we'll explain what Quebec allows so you can plan with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
It's one price, set before anything begins, and it doesn't move. That price carries the transfer into our care, the cremation at an authorized crematorium, the Quebec documents, an urn, and the ashes brought back to you in person. Our pricing page shows the current Quebec figure, and whatever it says the day you call is what your bill will say. No hidden fees: nothing is added for an evening, a weekend, or an extra form. If something ever falls outside the price, you hear it before you agree to anything, not after.
We bring them to you ourselves, to the Outremont door you tell us to come to, and we agree on the day with you rather than leaving you watching for a courier. If you'd rather collect them, send us to a different address, or wait until family has flown in, say so and we'll work to it. You'll know the date as soon as we do. And months later, when the Retraite Québec death benefit paperwork is still moving, you can still call the same number.
The options are close by: Mount Royal, Cimetière Notre-Dame-des-Neiges, Mount Royal Cemetery, and the borough's own parks, Parc Outremont with its pond, Parc Saint-Viateur, Parc Pratt. What each place allows differs from site to site, so before you settle on one, call us and we'll find out what's involved and tell you straight, including when the answer is no. Plenty of families keep the ashes at home while they think it over, and there's no hurry on that.
That's a question for your rabbi or for your family's cemetery before it's a question for us: practice and policy around cremation differ between communities and between cemeteries, and yours is not ours to answer. What we can do is set out exactly what a direct cremation involves, step by step, so whatever you decide, you're deciding on the real thing. If it isn't the right path for your family, we'll say so plainly and point you where to go instead. If you go ahead, we work to your timing and your wishes, in French or English, and we never push.
Outremont and everything around it: Mile End, Côte-des-Neiges, the Town of Mount Royal, Parc-Extension and Plateau-Mont-Royal. Crossing a borough line changes nothing about the work or the amount: an address on Avenue Van Horne and one in Parc-Extension get the same fixed, all-inclusive price, and French or English either way. Tell us where you are and we'll come to you.
