If you’re comparing companion burial plots in Tacoma, it’s helpful to know that these plots are specifically designed for two people. A single burial plot is designed for one person, while a companion plot is intended for two people, either resting side by side or in a double-depth arrangement. If you’re still deciding whether ground burial is the right choice for your family, you can explore traditional ground burial. Below, we’ll compare each plot option so you can choose with confidence.
Choosing between a single plot and a companion plot is a personal decision, and our Lakewood team is here to make the process simple. Whether you’re planning for yourself, planning as a couple or making arrangements for a loved one, we’ll help you compare each option and find the one that best reflects your family’s wishes.
A single burial plot provides a resting place for one person. It’s a thoughtful choice for individuals planning ahead on their own, and plots can often be selected near other family members within the same memorial park.
Side by side burial plots in Lakewood provide two individual burial spaces next to one another, allowing couples or loved ones to remain together. This arrangement provides room for individual markers or a shared companion memorial that reflects both lives.
A double-depth companion plot provides space for two people within a single burial plot, with one resting above the other. This option uses less ground than side-by-side plots and is a practical choice for couples who prefer to remain together in one space.
Selecting a companion plot together allows couples to make an important decision calmly and thoughtfully. Knowing your wishes are already in place can bring peace of mind and spare your loved ones from making difficult choices during an emotional time.
