Paula Gervasi in the office at Hollywood went above and beyond in helping me find relatives in the cemetery. I live out of state and she had maps and even came out on foot to help me locate them. Paula is an asset to have at Hollywood and they are lucky to have her. What a warm and friendly woman. read more

Hollywood Cemetery - Funeral Services & Cemeteries Near Me - Union, New Jersey

Every step of the way the staff at this Cemetery has mis led my family during the burial process. And they are only about the 'up-sell'!!! And they're not even subtle about it. I would never give them one ounce of business but unfortunately my family purchased plots many years ago and now we're stuck with them. If you are looking for a peaceful resting place for your family, do not consider Hollywood. read more

The cemetery is nicely maintained. I have talked to many employees and what can I say, some go out of their way to help and some will not get out of the chair. They do not have their information on the computer. The bottom line at present, the area appears safe, any markers with vases, have been vandelized, and the grass is nicely kept. They will raise and trim markers free of charge, if you request. My grandparents chose this place. At present, 20 years after my grandmother's death, I am trying to get her name on a marker. We will see what happens. ????? read more

Hollywood Cemetery - The sign is underwhelming, but the cemetery is nicely maintained. - Funeral Services & Cemeteries Near Me - Union, New Jersey

This is a beautiful place. I have 3 relatives here. The grounds are well kept. They have very strict rules about what you can place at the markers and how long they keep them. I went 4 days after Easter and the Easter offerings were still on the graves. I think their general rule is 24 hours. read more

I have family here and this is a nice park, but, the staff is hit or miss. I was by after years of being away and the gentelman who assisted me could not have been nicer. However, I called to get some information on graves I own the woman who answered treated me like I was one big imposition. She got me the info but could not get me off the phone quick enough. Too bad - the place is very nice but who wants to deal with jerks.... I won't personally be going back (for any permanent accommodations that is) read more

I have my family in Hollywood cemetery mausoleums since the 80's. They are well kept and it a very nice inside. I visit frequently and it's a calming experience when visiting loved ones that have passed. read more

Mixed review, but leaning to negative. Beautiful grounds. LThey will address a request to raise a plaque without hesitation, from my experience. However, unless you visit often and bring grass trimming tools, plaques can be completely covered up in a few months. There does not appear to be any attempt or plan to correct this. I visit my parents there and see that surrounding plaques are mostly invisible. I am so sorry that I have purchased additional plots there. I once brought this up with staff and was blown off with nonsense comments about "a hundred thousand graves" which are impossible to maintain. That is exactly what they should / must do. They need to mow lower and use weed wackers or something. read more

Older cemetery management is not doing a good keeping the grave markers very clear; many are completely covered by grass...otherwise maintenance is ok, generally felt average read more

We visited relatives graves over the weekend. Looks well kept from the street and driving through, but BEWARE. The markers are all flat plates. The grass is zoysia. If you have a relative buried here with a single marker for any length of time, you will likely be unable to find it. Bring some serious garden tools. We were unable to locate a single great aunt. All of the single plates in the area were overgrown and undetectable. Found our double plate half covered. Zoysia grass is impossible to stop. And impossible to remove from your loved ones markers. Gone and forgotten They don't care. Maintenance? Yeah, just keep mowing. read more

The contract was changed twice supposedly for our benefit. But in fact there are just too many hidden charges. Not a good experience.

My parents and sister are buried at Hollywold Memorial Park and since 2011, when I moved to Florida, I have been using Hollywood's, expensive, service that will put flowers on the graves for the various holidays. The first year, because I visit the area frequently , I noticed that the flowers were put on the wrong graves. Ok, accidents happen, and Hollywood corrected their error and promised to send photos each holiday for verification , which they did and continue to do. The problem now is that the quality of the flowers has declined. The arrangement now consists of a few, sad mums. I called the office and spoke to a women named Paula Feigelis who wanted to convince me that because of the rural location, the animals ate the flowers. No, I tried to explain that all the sad flowers appeared to be there and not yet dinner for the deer. Paula had nothing else and gave me the corporate phone number (412.967.6200), which I called. I NEVER received a returned call. I would like an explanation. We pay for a quality arrangement and, just because many family members are not in the area and not able to monitor the situation, Hollywood should be held to a higher standard. Also, Hollywood could do a better job keeping the grave plates groomed. Don't forget your gardening tools when visiting. It seems whenever I visit, the workers spend a lot time on break. read more

This cemetery is gross. They charge $1,737.12 for maintenance and perseveration to lay down a footstone for my in laws and all the graves always have geese crap all over. You have to play hopscotch. read more

Very unprofessional business. Burying a loved one should be a smooth, peaceful process. As my grandmother was getting buried, staff had the audacity to mention a check that had not been signed yet. read more

Horrible!!!!!!! I have many relatives buried at hollywood. but the new group of people there suck! we just had to bury my father (a hard a painful time) the people we had to deal with were insensitive and obnoxious. when we had to go sign the papers to have my dad buried there we heard a gentleman arguing with a customer on the phone. then the lady we were dealing with was clueless took forever and then her and the man came in and started to argue with us. they then had the nerve to call one week after my father's death to see what my mother wanted to do with the plot next to my father. my mother told them nothing at this time. she then told them of a complaint we, and many of the attendants of my fathers funeral had with the cemetery. instead of listening and apologizing the lady started to argue and fight with her. ridiculous, yes most of the people they deal with are dead but if they want business they better start learning how to deal with the living read more

I would not bury a loved one here. Both my father and grandmother are buried at Hollywood. My dad died two years ago. I live in Alaska but my mother is 89 and when I am in N.J. we go and see the grave. I went at Christmas and I couldn't find the grave because it was all grown over with grass as if he wasn't there. Since that time I've made 4 service requests to uncover him. Tomorrow is the anniversary of his death and they still haven't uncovered him. I 'm thinking I'll have to fly down and go out there with some garden tools myself. Deplorable that they don't care even if you go about requesting in a nice manner. read more
