At four pounds, they must have shipped her in a ziplock bag. A respectable urn weighs way more than that.
They "claim" they did a lot more.

A letter from Wayne Sykes, manager of North Valley Crematory, to the North Dakota State Board, details the packaging of Mary Mink. A portion of the letter states remains of Mrs. Mink were as follows:

"... placed in a heavy plastic liner bag, using the urn fill tub equipment. The liner bag was zip tied with the North Valley Crematory metal cremation I.D. disc for identification attached by the zip tie. The liner bag containing the cremated remains was then placed inside of the black vinyl temporary container (urn) and the empty space was filled with foam packing peanuts for protection. The certificate of cremation was enclosed inside the black temporary container. The vinyl temporary urn was then placed into the white cardboard outer container. An additional copy of the cremation certificate was taped with scotch tape to the outside of the cardboard container. The temporary urn enclosed by the white cardboard container was inserted into a tight fitting Tyvek type shipping envelope, wrapped with two strips of 2 inch vinyl tape around. The post office shipping car was attached on the outside of the Postal Service envelope, and completed for mailing by the U.S. Postal Service agents."
