To serve the existing and rapidly growing population of the south west corridor, Rockingham Regional Memorial Park on Baldivis Road, Baldivis - 42 kilometres south of Perth city – was opened in 2007.
A section of the site has been allocated to the Muslim community for burials.
Funeral Protocol
For lawn burials, people should enter through the Baldivis Road gates.
Mourners attending burials in the denominational burial areas should enter the cemetery through the Millar Road gates.
Crematorium
A crematorium commenced operations at Rockingham in September 2017. Families wishing to organise a cremation at Rockingham can arrange this via a Funeral Director. Ashes following cremation are available during office hours. Please call 1300 793 109 to arrange collection.
Flower and Ornament Policy
The Metropolitan Cemeteries Board is committed to maintaining its cemeteries and memorial gardens to a high standard.
Following an extensive community consultation exercise, a revised policy was developed in 2011.
We thank our visitors for observing the conditions described in the policy.
Whilst artificial tributes do have an environmental impact and the placement of fresh tributes is preferred, the Board recognises that many families prefer artificial tributes and, as such, their placement is respected as being an integral part of the grieving process.
When placing new tributes, we would ask that plastic wrapping be removed and withered/weathered tributes be placed within one of the rubbish bins located throughout the cemeteries.
The Flower and Ornament Policy can be downloaded here, or please contact Client Services on 1300 793 109 if you prefer to have a copy mailed to you.
