Headstones, Grave Markers

Including but not limited to bronze memorials, sandblasted granite memorials, laser engraved granite memorials (for people), have a usual production lead time of 8-12 weeks from the time we have a signed layout proof from the purchaser. Special order memorials, memorials requiring excessive customization or revisions will add on to the lead time. Lead times are tentative and subject to change. Additionally, production is halted for a 2 week period over the Christmas/New Year holiday thus adding 2 weeks to production for orders that carry over during this period.

Most headstones and grave markers containing granite weighing in excess of 150 lbs are shipped via freight carrier and mustship directly to the cemetery or a business address. It is important that the delivery destination be properly equipped to off load the granite memorial otherwise it cannot be delivered there. Granite headstones and grave markers weighing less than 150 lbs may be shipped either by freight carrier or UPS at our discretion. If liftgate service is required at the point of delivery, additional fees will be incurred.

Granite headstones and grave markers will only be delivered to cemeteries or businesses which are staffed with a crew equipped to properly receive these types of memorials. Casket Outlet will not deliver memorials to unattended cemeteries or businesses. Furthermore, we cannot schedule a delivery time or request a phone call from the delivery company to the destination point prior to delivery.

When a headstone or grave marker is ordered with selected delivery to a cemetery, our office will contact the cemetery to ensure the memorial meets their requirements. We must obtain written approval from the cemetery that the memorial meets their requirements and that they will accept delivery before the memorial will be scheduled for shipment. If the cemetery approves the memorial but, will not accept delivery of it, we may at our discretion assist the customer in locating a memorial installer to accept delivery and assist with installation. It is the responsibility of the customer to pay for additional fees incurred by this method.

If customer opts to have the memorial delivered to a destination other the cemetery and we have no way of verifying its acceptability by the cemetery, then customer assumes all responsibility for insuring the memorial meets the requirements of the cemetery where the memorial will be placed.

The epoxy will clean up with soap and water eliminating the need for a messy chemical cleanup.

Selecting The Right Vase Size

It is important to first check with your cemetery to determine if they have any restrictions for flower vases. Once you have the go ahead, find a place on the monument or grave marker where you wish to place the flower vase. Measure the area where the vase will sit so you have an idea of how big a vase you can choose. Be careful not to go with a flower vase that is so big that it will look disproportionate to the monument. Allow at least 1/2" space between the end of the monument and the side of the flower vase.
