What type of urn is best for a niche cemetery?

The standard size niche is between 9 and 12 inches cubed but they can vary. Some columbariums may have larger, fancier, and more price niches as well as smaller, simpler and more budget-friendly niches. Common columbarium urns are made of stone, marble, and metal due to their durability.

The best cremation urns for niches are around 8.5 inches tall and more box-shaped. Most columbarium niches are between 9-12 inches big, but it will also all depend on the cemetery. Marble and stone urns are one of the better choices for columbarium urns because of their durability. Metal is also a good choice for the same reason.
