Arrangements for Burial

The Municipality works in co-operation with all local funeral homes. Arrangements are made by the Funeral Director, who will notify Municipality of West Perth staff of the date and time of funeral.

The following is required for an interment to take place

  • Proof of ownership of the Certificate of Interment Rights
  • Burial Permit or Certificate of Cremation

Should the Internment Rights Holder(s) be deceased, authorization must be provided in writing by the person authorized to act on behalf of the Interment Rights Holder(s) in keeping with the Succession Law Reform Act (i.e. Personal Representative/Estate Trustee, Executor, or next of kin). 

Lot Capacity

One (1) casket and up to four (4) urns is considered a full lot as described in Section F of our Cemetery By-law. 

Winter Interments

Winter burials take place weather permitting or on a medical order. Burials occur between April 15th and November 15th (inclusive) each year.
