Care arrangements depend on the grave type. Rights holders may maintain conventional choice graves themselves or appoint a cemetery gardener. Many themed areas include shared long-term care as part of their concept.
Clarify the grave type and rules first
Collect the following information before arranging work:
- grid square, grave number and clear directions
- grave type and dimensions
- existing design restrictions
- required scope of care
- a recent photograph of the grave
At a themed burial area, the memorial, surround or shared planting must not be changed without permission. Ask the cemetery administration for binding rules for the particular grave.
Grave care by GraveStay
Care can only be requested when the grave is clearly identifiable on site. Provide precise directions or a Google Maps or OpenStreetMap point. A recent photograph is recommended because it shows the current condition and likely workload.
If the location is unknown, begin with a grave search. After a successful search, the located grave is recorded in the GraveStay database and the required care can then be requested.

What affects the price
The main factors are the size of the grave and the selected service. The condition assessed from a photograph and the required urgency also matter. Short-notice work, a particular date or specific flower requests may increase the price.
Specific prices and processing times are set only after the individual details have been reviewed.
