Urns Online

Deciding what will be done with the cremated remains may help you decide what type of urn to select.

EARTH BURIAL - If the final disposition of cremated remains is to take place on cemetery grounds, they may require that a non-biodegradable urn or urn vault is used. Please check with cemetery regarding their regulations.
COLUMBARIUM - Columbariums are designed to hold many sets of ashes in niches usually in rows and columns which allow the front of the niche to be engraved or a bronze nameplate to be added with the name and dates of birth and death. Columbariums are located in cemeteries, churches, chapels, and many other places. Most niches have limitations on the size of the urn it will accommodate. Please check with the owners of the columbarium regarding the dimensions of the niche before you purchase an urn.
MAUSOLEUM - Most mausoleums offer areas for cremated remains to be displayed behind glass. They provide indoor areas where family members can visit the urn of a loved one in a serene setting. There are usually restrictions on the size of urn it will accommodate. Please check with the mausoleum owners before you purchase an urn.
DISPLAY - An urn can be purchased for display in a residence or other location. Many people feel that an urn can offer comfort in knowing that the cremated remains of their loved one are present in their home. An urn can also provide an important focal point if the cremated remains have been scattered.

SCATTERING - Cremated remains may be scattered over land or water, in accordance with local law (Check with your funeral director). When families choose total scattering, all of the cremated remains are scattered. When partial, or ceremonial, scattering is chosen, a small amount of the remains are scattered while the remaining portion is buried, placed in a niche, or kept in the home. If partial scattering, a portion of the cremated remains may be preserved in one or more keepsake urns.
