Our Story
A Better Way
We understand, because we’ve been there. We’ve had to make after life decisions that felt confusing and overwhelming, when all we wanted to focus on was the loved ones we had lost. That’s why we started Solace. We knew there must be a better way.
Solace Cremation provides an affordable direct cremation service with online arrangements in Portland and surrounding areas. The cost of Solace’s cremation services is simple and transparent, leaving no surprises or unexpected costs.
At Solace, we believe you should know exactly how much you are going to pay, upfront. Our one price of $1,195 for our direct cremation service includes everything from beginning to end. Our inclusive cost of cremation is not a starter price. We don’t add fees or do any upselling. It’s one price, for everything, for real.
Solace proudly serves Portland and surrounding areas. Our Solace Care Team provides concierge-level support, putting the focus where it needs to be — on you and your loved one — services can be requested 24/7 by phone.
What People Are Saying
When it mattered the most, the team in Solace came through for our family who had just lost its patriarch, my father. Given the level of professionalism and understanding of the Solace Team, I am certain that my family could not have had a better experience at one of the most difficult times we faced together. Solace did what it promised and went beyond and above to help us cope with the grief and not worry about the annoying but necessary bureaucratic process of death. My family and I are ever grateful for their understanding and help.

I found Solace on the Internet in the middle of the night when I realized the weeks we thought we would have turned into a matter of days. I was attracted by the straightforward way Solace pre-sented the information I needed to make a decision. Solace couldn’t have been more respectful of our family and our loss. Every contact, including email, text, and of course in person, was re-spectful and comforting. I felt very comforted knowing my husband was in their care.

The Solace team was very helpful and I was able to take care of my sister worry-free. Every-thing was done in a timely manner and because I was out of the area and had to do it all online, it came together perfectly. Thank you so much for your service.
