Interments may take place Monday to Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. A surcharge will be applied to any interment after 4:00 p.m. or on a Saturday. Interments are not permitted on Sunday, as per Nobleton Cemetery By-law 2012-078.   Please note that vaults are required at Nobleton Community Cemetery and cemetery staff do not provide lowering devices. 

It is common for people to think they own the land where a lot or plot is located, but actually they do not. What they have purchased is the right to be buried there. This is called Interment Rights, which also includes the right to erect memorialization in accordance with the current cemetery by-law. 

Written permission

A friend or family member may be interred in the lot/plot you have purchased, as long as the individual who holds the interment rights has given written permission or has stated such on the interment rights contract, and space is available in accordance with the cemetery by-law. 

Scattering of cremated remains

The Nobleton Community Cemetery does not currently offer a scattering location but does offer a cremation lot section in the cemetery.  Although the burial of cremated remains is not permitted outside a licensed cemetery, you may scatter the ashes or cremated remains on private property with the written consent of the land owner. You may also scatter the cremated remains on unoccupied Crown lands and Crown lands covered by water so long as there are no signs prohibiting scattering.  

Only certain people have the legal authority to decide what will happen to the body of the deceased person. In order of priority, they are:

• an estate trustee, sometimes referred to as executor or executrix (the person named in the deceased person’s will or the person appointed by the court to administer the estate)
• a spouse
• adult children
• parents of the deceased

If you are an estate trustee, expect to provide photo ID and proof of your authority (e.g., a will or court order) before you make arrangements.

When an interment right is purchased,  a portion of the fee is set aside for the Care and Maintenance of the cemetery (as per the Funeral, Burial and Cremation Services Act, 2002, S.O. 2002, c.33).  The cemetery uses the interest from this account to carry out the care and maintenance.  This way cemetery property may be cared for forever. The care and maintenance amount is a one time fee. 

No annual fees are required

The amount for ongoing care and maintenance is included in the purchase price; therefore, no annual fees are required. When a marker/monument is purchased, there is a one-time care and maintenance fee depending on the type and size of the marker selected.

Please contact ServiceKing by phone at 905-833-5321 or email at serviceking@king.ca when reporting any maintenance issues at the Nobleton Community Cemetery. 

Artificial wreaths may be placed on a lot after October 15 of each calendar year. Artificial wreaths must be removed from all lots in the cemetery by no later than April 1 of each calendar year. 

Any type of plantings or ornamentation must adhere to By-laws for the subject cemetery.
