Large– Designed to hold a ALL of the ashes of a loved one (or less if desired) (approx. 220 cu.in.). This is the right choice if you would like to scatter all or most of the ashes.
Medium– Designed to hold about 1/2 of the ashes of a loved one (approx. 100 cu. In.). This is a good choice if you are splitting the ashes in two among family or friends or if you would just like to scatter a portion of the ashes.
Small– Designed to hold about 1/4 of the ashes of a loved one (approx. 50 cu.in). This is a good choice if you are splitting the ashes among multiple family members or friends, or if you would just like to scatter a portion of the ashes.

Pre Need (making plans in advance)
Many people are interested in taking care of plans ahead of time. The Eco Scattering Urn can be purchased in advance for yourself or a loved one. The urn has no expiration, and, although it is all natural and biodegradable, it will not biodegrade unless it is placed in the ground and exposed to soil and moisture. Therefore, it can be stored safely for many years before use (as long as desired).
