Adult Urns
Adult cremation urns are containers specifically designed to hold the ashes of an adult who has passed away. These urns come in a variety of shapes, sizes, materials, and designs, and serve as a final resting place for the ashes of your loved one.
Having a physical object to hold the ashes of a loved one can bring comfort to those who are grieving. Urns serve as a tangible reminder of the person who has passed away and can provide a sense of closure for those left behind. Additionally, urns can also serve as a decorative piece in the home, helping to keep the memory of the loved one alive in a beautiful and meaningful way.
Furthermore, many urns come with personalization options such as engraving, allowing individuals to add a personal touch and make the urn truly unique to their loved one. Whether displayed in a special place in the home or interred in a cemetery, urns provide a sense of comfort and peace to those who have lost someone they love.
What size urn do I need?
In order to hold all your loved one's ashes you'll need to know what the approximate body weight of the person or pet you are shopping for.
One pound of body weight will yield just less than 1 cubic inch of ash.
Assume for shopping purposes that: 1 pound body weight = 1 cubic inch ash.
Cremation urn item descriptions list the size of an urn in Cubic Inches. If you know the weight of the deceased - then you know the size of the urn you need. Approximate Weight = Approximate Cubic Inch Size.
Easy example: A cremated 100 pound person will yield almost 100 cubic inches of ashes. So, if 1 pound = 1 cubic inch then this person would need an urn that is approximately 90-100 cubic inches or larger.
Our navigational menu along the top of the page breaks down the different types of urns into relevant size and material categories. For example, the Double / Companion Urns section (under the Cremation Urns tab) is for cremation urns that are large enough to hold the ashes of two people. On the other side of the cremation urn size spectrum we have a Keepsake Urns section, which are urns with a very small capacity designed to hold small amounts of ashes. Other size specific categories are Small & Medium Size Urns, Infant & Child Urns, and Pet Urns.
