Burial options for you

Our cemeteries provide dignified burial services in serene settings. We're here to support you in arranging a respectful final resting place that honours your loved one's memory.

Lawn Burials

Lawn burials provide a peaceful resting place within our beautifully landscaped lawns. Each grave may be marked with either a headstone or plaque, creating a harmonious, park-like setting that reflects simplicity and grace.

All our new lawn sites allow for 3 burials and 16 sets of ashes to be interred. Capacities for older sites already with interments will have to be confirmed with the cemetery.

Dudley Park currently has Lawn plots available for pre-purchase or at time of funeral planning. If you would like to select a plot please contact us

Pre-Purchase of sites at Payneham is currently unavailable, however sites are always available for purchase at time of funeral planning. If you would like to be contacted if pre-purchase becomes available, please contact us to be placed on our Prior arrangement register.

Lawn Burial

Traditional burials

Traditional burial sites reflect the history and heritage of our cemeteries. These graves, often marked by larger monuments and kerbing, offer a glimpse into the customs and craftsmanship of earlier generations.

While no new traditional sites are available for purchase within either cemetery, interments can continue to take place within in licence sites and an active Interment right holder.

Vault burials

Vault burials provide a dignified and enduring form of interment, chosen by families who value tradition and lasting remembrance. Each vault is a secure, concrete chamber that allows for impressive marble monumentation, known as a ledger, creating a place of beauty and permanence.

We currently only have Vaults available for purchasing at the time of funeral planning. If you wish to register your interest of pre-purchasing a vault at either cemetery, please contact us to be placed on the prior arrangement register.

Interments into burial sites

Family burial plots can accommodate up to 16 sets of cremated remains, allowing loved ones to rest together in one place. Ashes may be interred at the time of the funeral, or at any stage afterwards making this a thoughtful option even for those who have held ashes for some time.

Families are welcome to liaise with us directly and engaging a funeral director is not necessary. We can also assist with designing and installing plaques on existing headstones, creating a lasting tribute for each loved one.

Monumental Masons and Foundries

We proudly work alongside members of the South Australian Monumental Masons Association, ensuring the highest standards of skill and craftsmanship in every memorial. Our trusted partnerships with foundries such as Phoenix and Arrow Bronze allow us to provide beautifully crafted plaques and metal works that honour each individual’s memory with lasting quality.

For all bronze plaque needs — including the creation of new plaques, updates, or renovations — families are welcome to work directly with us here at the cemetery. For headstones and stone monuments, we recommend contacting your chosen monumental mason directly to discuss design, materials, and installation.
