On EverJewish you tell the Jewish cemeteries near Colma once what you're looking for and each answers you with its own availability, requirements and prices; no calls until you're ready.
?What should a family confirm before choosing a Jewish cemetery near Colma?▼
Whether plots are available now and to whom (members, the public, or pre-sold only); who may be buried there, including a non-Jewish spouse and section rules; the total cost in writing; the cemetery's rules for the monument; and which funeral homes it works with. Jewish funerals are not held on Shabbat or festivals, and customs vary between communities — the family's rabbi decides what is right for them.

Hills of Eternity (owned by Congregation Sherith Israel) and Eternal Home Cemetery (operated by Sinai Memorial Chapel) are the most established. For Home of Peace and Salem Memorial Park, contact Jewish Cemeteries of San Francisco.
