Coachella Valley Public Cemetery District
“An Endowment Care District”
Welcome to the Coachella Valley Public Cemetery District. Our goal is to provide our community with exceptional service, maintaining our cemetery as a dignified and respectful resting place for loved ones.
The Coachella Valley Public Cemetery District is an independent California Special District formed in 1927. The District serves the public cemetery needs of an area encompassing nearly 3,444 square miles of Riverside County, including the cities of Coachella, Indio, La Quinta, Indian Wells, Palm Desert, as well as parts of Rancho Mirage and unincorporated Riverside County. The purpose of the District is to offer affordable interment services for our County residents.
This website can be used to locate loved ones, access information about upcoming interment services, special events and District policy, as well as schedule an appointment with staff. If you are unable to find the information you require, please reach out to us during office hours and we will be happy to assist you.

- No Mowing: There will be no mowing September 14th through October 13th. You do not need to pick up your memorial items during this time. Please note, natural flowers and other items that are dying or become unsightly may be removed.
- Seeding: Overseeding will be done the week of September 16th. Seed will germinate through October 13th. We strongly recommend the public avoid any unnecessary tread (foot-traffic) on cemetery grounds during this time. Picnicking, congregating, or repeated visits to the area will result in poor grass germination in those areas.
