Things to know before buying cremation urns

 

It is not easy to plan for your loved one’s passing or to prepare yourself for a dear one’s funeral. But when it comes to actually experience the passing of a loved one, it is important to honor them properly. While planning for the funeral or the memorial for your loved one, you need to pick the right cremation urn to store their ashes.



 

A cremation urn is a container that is used to store the remaining ashes of your loved one or your pet. The funeral urns for ashes come in different shapes, sizes, and designs. There are many options to customize urns for ashes. You can get a glass cremation container, a wooden one, a metal one, or even a biodegradable urn. If you are thinking of opting for outdoor options then you can get a scattering urn, an ice urn, a water urn, or a burial urn. If you are thinking of an indoor process then you can opt for a marble urn, a ceramic urn, a wooden urn, a crystal urn, a metal urn, and many more.

 

You need to remember the rule of thumb while buying a cremation urn, that is one cubic inch holds one pound of a person. So, for a person who used to weigh 100 pounds, you need an urn that has the capacity of 100 cubic inches. You can choose the shape and design of the urn based on your home decor. Urns come in various designs and shapes such as cylinder-shaped urns, rounded urns, triangular urns, etc. The cost for the urns will depend on the size and shape of the urns. An urn typically ranges between $100 to $2000.
