Right Size Urn: Selecting the right size urn can be surprisingly confusing. After a cremation, you might be handed a temporary container or ashes in a bag from the crematorium or funeral director. But these containers vary hugely in size and shape, with no consistent standard across the UK. This makes it hard to know what size urn you actually need.
To make matters more complex, urns and scatter tubes are sold with measurements in a mix of units: some use cubic inches, others use litres. If you’re trying to buy an urn online, it can be baffling to translate your container into a suitable long-term urn.
