Not sure where to start?
Choosing the right size urn for ashes
As a rule, every 1lb of body weight needs about 1 cubic inch of urn volume — roughly 250ml per stone. Most adults need an urn of 3 to 3.5 litres, which is suitable for 99% of cases.
| Body weight | Urn size needed | Weight of ashes |
|---|---|---|
| 1lb · 0.45kg | 1 cubic inch · 17ml | 13g |
| 4.5 stone · 28.5kg | 62 cubic inches · 1 litre | 850g |
| 12 stone · 76.2kg | 168 cubic inches · 2.8 litres | 2.17kg |
