Since Tulip families make their arrangements online and over the phone, we are well positioned to continue looking after families during this unique time. Our high levels of service will not be affected, and it is our usual practice to work with families remotely. You continue to be in safe hands with Tulip.
In addition, we are regularly deep cleaning our facilities and crematories, as per guidelines provided by the Centers of Disease Control.
These are going to be trying times for Californians – but Tulip remains open 24/7 and committed to supporting you with your cremation needs.
Thank you for your understanding and support during these challenging times.

Dedicated Care Team available for you 24/7.I can not say enough about the care and understanding I was shown by this company. They were so kind and kept me informed all through the process.
