At Greendale Garden Cemetery, it's important that we help our community understand the sector. Part of our commitment to you is the promise to create transparency and educate our community on our services and their rights.
At Greendale, our renewable interment right is a sustainable and responsible choice, that includes the ability for the grave to be reused every 25 years remaining with the family for generations.
It is important to renew to ensure that contact details, next-of-kin information, and ownership records in the cemetery register are up to date. This helps the cemetery communicate effectively.
Renewable Interment Rights are a progressive and eco-conscious option for memorialisation. They are a forward-thinking approach that allows you to honour your loved one’s memory while positively impacting the environment.
As available burial land becomes increasingly limited across greater Sydney, these rights allow families to maintain a lasting connection with a family grave while supporting the sustainable use of cemetery land. It also helps reduce the long-term cost of burial for future generations.
Renewable Interment Rights promote the conservation of green spaces, preserving the natural beauty of cemeteries and providing sanctuaries for local flora and fauna. By enabling the respectful reuse of graves over time, this model minimises the environmental impact associated with developing new burial sites.
