Are cremated remains returned from the crematory in an urn?
An urn is an optional item. If you decide that you want more than what is provided in our 12-Step Complete Cremation Service, we offer a multitude of affordable urns, through Cremation Solutions, http://www.cremationsolutions.com/, as well as numerous keepsakes (miniature urns or pendants) designed to contain a portion of the cremated remains while the remainder is buried, scattered or inurned. We supply an industry standard hard plastic container for the cremated remains, which is included in the 12-Step Complete Cremation Service. If you are unable to come by and pick up the cremated remains, the container is protective for certified mailing, and meets all US Postal Service regulations. Many families choose to simply use this container, especially when they will be performing a family scattering of ashes at a later date. It is also accepted at Veterans Cemeteries for placement above ground in a niche or below ground in a grave. If you plan to use a private cemetery, check with that c
