…and, just like that, summer was over.
It seems like only days ago we were experiencing the 100° days of September. Then, one day, the mercury did not break 90°. Then, October came and then November and then, in a blink of an eye, we are deep into a frigidly cold spell looking forward to Thanksgiving.
Grave Care is a Great Business
I’ve said it many times that any day working in a cemetery is better than any day working in an office. I will continue to maintain that position but I will admit these frigid days of November are less pleasant than the colorful autumn days of October. Still, there is quite a bit that can be done in cemeteries this time of year and it’s great to be able to operate a Grave Care Business year-round.
The focus of Grave Care shifts during the winter months. In the weeks and days before Christmas, the focus turns primarily toward grave plot upkeep and floral grave decoration change-outs. Being adaptable in your Grave Care Business and having the ability to offer multiple services means you will be able to operate your business all 12 months of the year.
Cemetery Maintenance Services
For Grave Plot upkeep, it’s time to blow away leaves, sow grass seed, prune back damaging tree limbs, and develop an erosion control strategy for susceptible grave sites.
For Grave Decoration Change-Outs, now is the time to remove summer and autumn-colored floral decorations. Replacing old flowers with Christmas or holiday inspired decorations keeps the grave site looking fresh and new. Families who visit their loved-ones’ grave sites over the holiday season will enjoy seeing seasonally appropriate floral decorations.
Also, as we like to point out in our Grave Care Business Course, proper placement of decorations is an important consideration as it will make your Grave Care Company look much more professional.
