What should happen if all remains do not fit into the specified urn?

When the remains do not fit into the specified urn, the appropriate action is to place the extra remains in a separate temporary container. This procedure respects the dignity of the deceased and is aligned with ethical standards in the funeral industry. Utilizing a temporary container ensures that all remains are safely and respectfully handled, and it provides a clear labeling system for identification purposes.

This approach allows families the opportunity to decide how they wish to manage the extra remains, whether they want to keep them in the temporary container until they can acquire a larger urn or handle them in some other manner. It maintains the integrity of the cremains while allowing for the family's wishes to be honored. Such actions are vital in maintaining trust and professionalism within the funeral service industry.
