Funeral Flowers Delivered to Ruckers Mortuary, Bakersfield
We deliver funeral flowers to Ruckers Mortuary, 301 Baker Street, Bakersfield, CA 93305. Baker Street is in old east Bakersfield, close to the Union Cemetery end of town, and a good number of services there move on to a graveside afterwards.
If the service is today or tomorrow, call (661) 588-7997. Tell us the name on the service and the time and we will tell you honestly whether we can make it.
What to send to a service at Ruckers Mortuary
Because a committal often follows at a nearby cemetery, ask the funeral director whether the flowers will be moved across. If they are, you usually only need one piece — they carry it over as a matter of course.
- Standing sprays on an easel — the default for friends, coworkers and neighbours. From $324.99.
- Casket sprays — the piece that sits on the casket, traditionally from the immediate family. From $199.99.
- Crosses and wreaths — on an easel, and still very much used here. From $299.99.
- Vase arrangements — for a smaller service, or to go on to the family home afterwards. From $124.99.
- Plants — a peace lily or prayer plant that keeps going long after the week is over. From $74.99.

Delivering to the family home in east Bakersfield
Baker Street sits inside our tightest delivery loop, so a service piece in the morning and a house delivery in the afternoon are both easy on the same day.
If you are a neighbour or a coworker rather than family, sending to the house a few days after the service is often the kinder call. By then the crowd has gone and the week has got quiet, which is when people notice being thought of.
Timing for a Ruckers service
- Order by 12pm for delivery the same afternoon, Monday to Saturday.
- For a service, we deliver two to three hours before it starts so everything is placed before the family arrives.
- For a Monday service, order by Saturday morning. We are closed Sundays.
- For a graveside service at a cemetery rather than the chapel, tell us when you order. Those are timed and built differently.
Confirm the time with the funeral home and tell us what they said. We will work to it.
What it costs
Standing sprays for a service start at $324.99 and go up with size. Casket sprays start at $199.99, and arrangements for the family home start at $64.99. Tell us your budget and we will tell you what it actually buys before you commit to it.
The card message
“With deepest sympathy from the Hernandez family”. Keep it short and sign it with the name they will recognise. We can print it or hand-write it — just say which.
If the service moves on to a graveside, see what we send to Union Cemetery.
