Decorating & Prohibited Items
All decorations on a grave should be kept to a minimum and must be no further onto the grave than 12" from where the monument would be located. Anything outside of this area will need to be removed as it will interfere with our maintenance efforts.
Any items that can pose as a safety risk will be removed. If a grave is unable to be maintained due to decorations they will be discarded without warning. If you are unsure that your decoration may violate our prohibited item list, you can email us a photo and we will be able to let you know if it will be acceptable.
Most generic cemetery decoration items such as real/plastic flowers in cemetery cones are acceptable to be placed on the grave. Please be aware that the wildlife in the cemetery will eat fresh flowers, so most people opt to use plastic.
Any items that are metal are glass we advise against because they pose a safety hazard when maintaining the lawns.
