The Melbourne Chevra Kadisha Springvale Cemetery (MCK Springvale Cemetery) is a Jewish Cemetery that's served the Greater Dandenong City since 1964 when it first opened. It's currently managed by the Melbourne Chevra Kadisha, and their website is listed. Today the MCK Springvale Cemetery contains over 15k+ interments.

According to Jewish law, many burials were done after or on their day of death. The cemetery site is open to the public on weekdays including public holidays but is closed on Shabbat, including many other Jewish holidays during the year. Kohanim aren't allowed to be within 8 feet of a gravestone in the cemetery even when visiting relatives according to Jewish law. This is marked within the cemetery.

Most gravestones here all have the same grave structure, and some consist of variations of Hebrew and English, sometimes only Hebrew. Most memorials without a grave photo can be found on the Melbourne Chevra Kadisha Website using their Find A Grave function, however, requires permission to be added onto their memorials due to copyright law.
