Yes, the heavy plastic container provided by most crematories is the minimum acceptable container for placement either in-ground or within the columbarium. Cremation urn/containers scheduled for columbarium inurnment (Spooner or Union Grove) need to meet the size limitations; call the cemetery for allowable dimensions and other questions.
