Directions to Cemetery

Navigation systems do an adequate job finding the cemetery at 10410 Veterans Memorial Dr., Houston.  Be sure to get there early as the on-premise parking fills up.  

You may consider traveling straight to Greenspoint Mall for parking.  The address is 12300 North Freeway, Houston.  Our free shuttle will bring you right into the cemetery and take you back. 


Parking Instructions

PARKING

The best place to park is at Greenspoint Mall and take the free shuttle.  

Cemetery grounds will fill up usually by 10am.

Other busses are not permitted in the cemetery.  Please pull to the front gate to let your passengers off and then park at Greenspoint to take the shuttle.  Most busses are wheelchair equipped.

NOTE - After the ceremony all the busses will be there to help take people back.  Please be patient as we get 15,000 people delivered back to Greenspoint Mall.  There will be a line, but it goes very quickly.
