Overdale Crematorium
Overdale Crematorium serves both the local communities in Overdale and individuals with burial plots at Bolton Council Cemeteries. This facility offers a range of services, including cremation funerals conducted in the chapel and the option to scatter ashes in the memorial garden. For those seeking extended chapel service time, this can be arranged for an additional fee. If a Saturday cremation is preferred, advanced discussion is necessary, and extra charges apply.
Memorial choices at Overdale Crematorium encompass entry into the Book of Remembrance or the selection of granite memorials like vase blocks, kerb memorials, or sanctums – above-ground vaults designed to accommodate two ashes caskets.
The crematorium's operating hours are weekdays from 8:30 am to 5:45 pm and on weekends and bank holidays from 10 am to 2 pm, ensuring flexibility for families during their times of remembrance.
Please remember: you need to book an appointment at the Overdale Crematorium in order to discuss your plans. We’d be happy to help you do this, so feel free to get in touch with one of our personal advisers.
