Cremation in New Westminster: what to expect
We care for families across New Westminster, from Downtown and Queen's Park to Sapperton, the West End, Connaught Heights and Queensborough. You can make every arrangement online, or meet with us in person at our Aldergrove office or in your home, for an extra cost.
Bringing your loved one into our care
We answer the phone 24 hours a day and arrange the transfer from wherever your loved one is in New Westminster. Transfer from a hospital is included in our package. A transfer from a home, hospice or care home adds $145.00.
Families in New Westminster often call us from:
- Royal Columbian Hospital (Fraser Health)
- Queen's Park Care Centre (rehab and long-term care)
- AgeCare Royal City
- Buchanan Lodge (The Salvation Army)
- Kiwanis Care Centre
Cremation takes place at our own crematorium in Aldergrove, about 43 km from New Westminster City Hall.
After the cremation
We call you when the cremated remains are ready. You can pick them up at our Aldergrove office at no charge, or our staff can hand-deliver them to you in New Westminster for $95.00.
The City of New Westminster owns Fraser Cemetery at 100 Richmond Street, on a site overlooking the Fraser River that was established around 1869. It offers cremation burial lots, columbarium niches and an ossuary.
Non-residents can buy cremation lots and niches there, at non-resident rates.
Across BC, ashes can generally be scattered on Crown land and in provincial parks, with consideration for others. On private land, ask the owner first, and in towns and cities, local bylaws apply. We can also scatter the ashes at sea on your behalf for $95.00.
