Can I personalize an urn?

Yes, many urns and keepsakes can be engraved or customized. Our engraving and personalization page provides examples and advice for creating a meaningful tribute.

How do I know which size urn to choose?

A general guideline is that one pound of body weight roughly equals one cubic inch of ashes. If you're unsure, our urn size guide offers detailed assistance.

Can I place my metal cremation urn in a cemetery or columbarium?

Check with the staff of your chosen site regarding what is available and what works best for your loved one, you, and your family. Many sites will have guidelines on external size and placement of urns. (Remember, inner dimensions of adult urns are approx. 200 cubic inches.) If you are placing your urn in a niche or vault, check with your desired cemetery or columbarium. The advantage of a metal urn is that it will weather well in almost all conditions.

How do I choose the best metal cremation urn for my loved one?

So much depends on what your departed wanted. If you aren’t super clear on what that is, trust your intuition. The veils between the worlds are thin when you are grieving a beloved; they just might tell you what they want!
