How to open an urn

Thursday, February 12th, 2009

The one question we had been asked about many times over the years is “how do you open the urn?”  Most of our pages said (albeit at the bottom) that the urn opens with 4 screws from the bottom, but since many don’t read all the way down they didn’t see that and would call and ask.

To simplify the answer we made a short video on it:

There are a few exceptions to this, of course, and most of the urns that are different the page mentions the way to put the cremains in. Some are smaller holes and others the the top is hinged. Vase style cremation urns tend to have the standard opening on top with a lid that can be sealed in place.
