Burial site selections and fees explained:
Every burial site at Wattlewood is a premium location. As revegetation progresses, every grave will become shaded by native trees and vegetation. You can choose between unallocated and allocated sites. There is a difference in pricing between unallocated and allocated sites. Allocated sites include a ‘future access fee’ that covers the ongoing cost of keeping reserved sites open and accessible (sometimes for decades) for future use.
Open Reserve
Simple, natural, and collective care
One Unallocated Site: $6,250
Open Reserve sites are unallocated natural burial sites assigned at the time of need within the broader burial landscape. This approach allows Wattlewood to systematically complete sections of the landscape, so revegetation can continue naturally around them over time, supporting optimal ecological recovery.
