Pet cremation in Hinckley, with collection from home or the vet

Collection across Hinckley

All of the LE10 postcode is in our core area, so collection is included whether you are near the town centre, in Hollycroft, Wykin or Sketchley, or over in Burbage. The same goes for Barwell and Stoke Golding, and for villages such as Higham on the Hill, Sapcote, Stoney Stanton, Sharnford and Market Bosworth.

We are based around Earl Shilton, about four miles from Hinckley town centre along the A47. That is a short trip, so the included morning and afternoon windows usually work well here. If you need a firmer time — before the school run, or once someone gets home from work — a chosen two-hour slot is £25 extra.

At home, in town

Many Hinckley homes are terraced streets near the centre where parking outside the door is not always possible. If we need to park a short walk away, we bring a covered carrier so your pet is not seen on the street. If you tick “please do not knock” on the form, we text when we arrive rather than using the door.

From a Hinckley vet

If your pet is at a surgery in Hinckley or Burbage, you can book us directly. Choose “veterinary surgery”, give the practice name and postcode, and we arrange the collection with the reception team. You do not need to take your pet home first, and you do not need to go back in to sign anything with us.

What happens next

Your pet is cremated individually at an APHA-approved partner crematorium local to the Midlands. We do not run the crematorium; we collect, stay with the arrangements and bring the ashes back to your door in Hinckley, in a scatter tube with a certificate. We tell you the expected return date when we confirm.

Scattering ashes locally

Ashes from a single pet can be scattered on your own land without a permit. You may be thinking of Burbage Common and Woods or Hollycroft Park, where your dog was walked for years. Those are not private gardens, so ask the landowner first; for council-run spaces that is Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council.

Your pet is cremated alone at an APHA-approved local crematorium. We collect them, stay with the arrangements, and bring their ashes home.
