  • Burying Recommendations:

  • Before digging push down with your shovel in a square shape the size width and
  • length hole you will be digging. This will allow you to try to remove the grass and
  • some top soil intact for placement back over the grave
  • Using the shovel, pry up the grass and topsoil in sections and place on side for
  • reinsertion later
  • Dig a hole 3 feet deep with enough room to fit the casket on for width and depth
  • Place the casket in the hole and fill dirt around the casket and above the casket,
  • pausing for the next step when you have about 1 inch of dirt on top of the casket
  • Sprinkle the soil at this point with lime to prevent other animals from scavenging
  • your grave site
  • Fill the rest of the way with dirt, compacting it as you go
  • At the top, place your grass and topsoil pieces back down. Lightly water your
  • grass in that area for the next few days (intensity of watering depends on season
  • and breed of grass) to try to reduce the shock of uprooting and give it a better
  • chance of taking hold again
