Burial plot or ash berm reservation

You can purchase the right of burial in a particular plot. This does not provide ownership of the land. All burial plots accommodate two caskets. All ash berms are designed to accommodate four sets of ashes.

Costs include:

• Plot/berm Purchase
• Ground maintenance (one off fee)

With consent from Council you can:

• Give consent for the burial of another person in the plot
• transfer rights to another person/family member
• apply to return the plot to Council. The cost paid for the plot will be refunded.

For costs associated with burial, please refer to our fees and charges. If the plot remains unused for 60 years, ownership will revert back to Council.
