Honour Lives. Preserve Space
How we lay our loved ones to rest shapes the city they leave behind. The following represent options currently available in the City of Johannesburg:
💚Standard first burials: New grave allocated to the family of the deceased.
💚Second Interments: 2nd and 3rd burials: Available to family members who choose to bury 1 or 2 additional family members in the same grave.
💚Reduction burials: Involve the exhumation of remains into a small coffin, which is then buried again, allowing additional burial space in the same location.
💚Cremation: A family receives the ashes of the deceased and decides how to best honor the memory of their dearly departed thereafter.
