General Etiquette

Climbing, leaning or sitting on graves and monuments is disrespectful and may cause irreversible damage to the memorial. There is also a risk that you could be hurt.

Please do not attempt to undertake any repairs, cleaning or restoration.

Never remove anything from a gravesite even if it’s an arrangement of flowers that has dried up and wilted weeks before you even got there.

How can I arrange for a monument to be cleaned or repaired?

Please contact the Outback Graves and we will work with you.
