The Westford Cemetery Department manages, maintains, and preserves Westford's five public cemeteries and one historic burying ground:

• Fairview Cemetery -  at Main Street and Tadmuck Road
• Hillside Cemetery - at Depot Street and Nutting Road
• Old Pioneer Burying Ground - at Carlisle Road and Old Lowell Road
• Pine Grove Cemetery - at 68 Forge Village Road
• Westlawn Cemetery - at Concord Road (Rte. 225) and Country Road
• Wright Cemetery - on Groton Road (Rte. 40) near North Street

[Note: The other two cemeteries in Westford, St. Catherine of Alexandria Cemetery (on Pine Ridge Road) and the Russian Orthodox National Cemetery (also known as the Russian Brotherhood Cemetery, on Patten Road), as well as the "Keyes cemetery" or "Jonas crypt" (on Jonas Road) are privately owned and do not fall under the supervision of the Cemetery Department.]

The Cemetery Department works collaboratively with private funeral homes and directors, families, Westford's Veteran Services Officer Ryan Cobleigh (VSO), private contractors and vendors, volunteers, and researchers to coordinate burials, sell burial lots, cremation niches, and burial rights, organize cemetery events, and field queries on genealogical research.

The Cemetery Department provides preservation and support services for the above six cemeteries, including:

• Assisting in the purchase of gravesite lots, burial rights, and columbarium (cremation) niches;
• Arranging interments and disinterments;
• Arranging for the order and placement of a veterans marker;
• Landscaping the cemeteries (mowing, planting, pruning, removing trees and shrubbery, maintaining flower beds);
• Plowing roads and clearing paths;
• Repairing walls and structures on cemetery grounds;
• Assisting the public related to making funeral arrangements, visiting a cemetery, and geneaology research;
• Organizing Memorial Day and Veterans Day observances and other special events.
