Frequently Asked Questions

About Memorial Boxes

What is a memorial box?

A memorial box is typically made from wood and offers a heartfelt tribute to deceased loved ones, by storing items that represent the lives they lived. Oftentimes memorial boxes will be personalized with a loved one’s picture.

What is a pet memorial box?

Pet memorial boxes are the same as regular memorial boxes, just intended to pay tribute to a deceased pet rather than person. Pet memorial boxes are often personalized with photos or names, and might include items such as leashes/collars, toys, photos, paw prints, etc.

What goes into a memorial box?

Memorial boxes contain items that help loved ones remember the deceased, and in some cases might even hold ashes within a cardboard urn. Typical items include photos, notes or letters, jewelry, awards or newspaper clippings, the funeral service sheet, etc.

How long will a memorial box last?

The quality and durability of a memorial box will determine how long it lasts. Our boxes are meticulously handcrafted from the highest quality hardwoods and therefore will last a lifetime. Less expensive, mass-market boxes are often made of thin, low-quality wood that will fade, chip or crack within a few years. When it comes to safeguarding memories of your loved one, the type of box you choose makes a difference.
