Urn price is no longer a measure of love
So much has changed because of the COVID pandemic. For this reason, how much you spend on your departed loved one’s cremation urn is no longer a measure of your love and devotion.
Top dollar or low-cost, the price tag isn’t important. What matters most is that the style, shape, color and price that works best for your situation.
Before you buy your bargain urn
- Choose the correct urn capacity (cubic inches)
Bodyweight before death determines the volume of ashes.
The rule of thumb is 1 pound bodyweight = 1 cubic inch. So, if your loved one weighed 180 pounds, you’ll need a cremation urn that holds 180 cubic inches or more. - Check the measurements
Check the height, width and depth of the cremation urn if its final resting place is in a niche, vault or columbarium. (See video.) - Match the urn material to your memorial purpose
If you’re planning to bury ashes or scatter them over the land, a lake, or sea then choose urns made with biodegradable materials.
