Common Questions

What Families Ask About Crestlawn

How long does it take to get a headstone made and set at Crestlawn?

Most markers are ready in 2 to 6 weeks after design approval. After we deliver to Crestlawn, the grounds crew usually sets the marker within 2 to 3 weeks. We coordinate the delivery schedule with the cemetery office so you don’t have to.

What are the setting fees at Crestlawn?

Crestlawn charges an installation fee and a processing fee on all outside memorials. Both are billed by the cemetery and are separate from the cost of the memorial itself. Fees vary by the size and type of marker. Call us at (909) 902-9000 and we can walk you through the current fee schedule for your marker size.

Do you handle the approval process with Crestlawn?

Yes. We fill out the Outside Memorial Installation Authorization form, submit it to Crestlawn for approval, coordinate any revisions, and schedule the delivery date with the cemetery office. You don’t need to make a separate trip to Riverside to handle the paperwork.

Can I add an inscription to an existing memorial at Crestlawn?

On site engraving is one of our specialties at most Southern California cemeteries, but Crestlawn handles inscriptions on existing memorials in house through their own office. To add a name, date, or inscription to a memorial already at Crestlawn, contact the Crestlawn office directly at (951) 689-1441.
