What Size Urn You Need

C.I. is “Cubic Inches” and is the measurement of the volume of cremains (ashes) an urn will hold or accommodate. In general one pound of body weight of the deceased will yield about one cubic inch of cremains. So, if the person weighs 100 pounds at the time of cremation, then an urn with 100 c.i. should be sufficient to accommodate the cremains. A 200-pound person would need a 200 c.i. urn, etc.

If you want to preserve all of the cremains, then you must get the correct size or move to the larger volume urn. If you like an urn that is larger than you need, then that is okay. It is fine to have 100 c.i. of cremains in a 200 c.i. urn particularly if you like a particular urn.


Urn Terminology

Infant Urn -- Infant and child urns are designed to hold a smaller amount of volume due to the need. Some come with a child theme while others are very traditional. A child under one year old will generally need an urn that is 35 cubic inches.

Keepsakes – These are designed to hold a small portion of the cremains, a lock of hair or dried flowers from the ceremony. Keepsakes allow family members to share a portion of the cremains of the deceased . A keepsake typically holds one to two cubic inches of cremains. Keepsakes are available as one, two, or sets of six.

Sets of 6 Keepsakes -- This is a convenient and economical way to provide keepsakes for family members. Sets of six can be of the same style but are also available as a mixed set to suit you needs. All come in a velvet case for safekeeping. Most keepsakes hold one to two cubic inches of cremains.

Companion and Double Urns – These urns are designed to hold the cremains of two adults. Most ‘Companion Urns’ have two separate compartments. ‘Double Urns’ usually have one compartment and the cremains are combined. The are generally twice the size of normal adult urns.
