Our Cemeteries

Due to the need to carry out routine maintenance, floral tributes are picked up regularly by Adelaide Cemeteries. Great care is taken to ensure that tributes are handled with care during this process, which varies slightly from one cemetery to another:

At Enfield Memorial Park floral tributes are picked up on the last Tuesday of each month to allow for maintenance. Tributes are carefully placed in the racks on the edges of our gardens, and remain in these racks for one week should families wish to collect them or replace them on a site.

At Smithfield Memorial Park floral tributes are picked up during the last week of each month, with signage placed in the gardens one week prior to this activity taking place so that families wishing to collect floral tributes themselves are given notice.

At Cheltenham Cemetery floral tributes are picked up during the last week of each month.

At West Terrace Cemetery, due to the unique nature of the cemetery and its gardens, pickup of floral tributes is not carried out and removal of flowers is the responsibility of families.

Please note that Public Holidays, special events and extreme weather may alter the timing of flower pickups on occasion. Should you have any questions regarding pickup timing or the Adelaide Cemeteries Floral Tribute Policy, please don’t hesitate to contact us for more information.
