Does a person have the option of converting a single depth interment burial space to a double depth interment space?
This process is governed by the rules of the cemetery. If the cemetery permits a single- depth interment burial space to be later used for a double-depth interment, there may be additional charges imposed for increasing the depth of the space and, potentially, for the disinterment of the person previously interred as part of that process. Additional fees for a second opening and closing of the grave site and related procedures may be imposed for a double-depth interment.
