You're not expected to know this. These questions help you compare and avoid surprises.
“Can I see your General Price List?”
Federal law (FTC Funeral Rule) requires them to give you itemized pricing. You have every right to ask.
“Do you accept insurance assignment?”
This means they bill the insurance company directly. You don't pay thousands upfront and wait to be reimbursed.
“What's included vs. what's extra?”
Packages may not include everything. Ask about the casket, embalming, transportation, facility fees, and death certificate copies.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
Know Your Rights
The FTC Funeral Rule protects you. Every funeral home must provide an itemized General Price List if you ask — in person or over the phone. You are never required to buy a package and can choose services individually. You also have the right to use a casket purchased elsewhere.

“I would give zero stars if I could. My mom’s best friend just passed. My mother is trying to help her husband get everything settled. John Hagen not only was unhelpful but proceeded to SCREAM at my mourning mother on the phone while she was asking questions. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AT THIS “establishment”. What a disgrace of a company.”

“If I could give less than 1 star I would. Our father passed away on 12/8/24. We requested a cremation and paid for the service. However, after much misdirection on the park of the funeral home we have yet to receive our fathers cremains 5 weeks after paying for the service. Too much deception on the part of Brooks Cremation. As a result of not getting the death certificates from Brooks, all financial issues are on hold and is causing the family difficulties. We would never recommend this company to anyone.”

“I would not even give this establishment 1 star. My mother passed on December 1st and she was not creameted until December 25th. No proper communication and we finally received her remains the first week of January. They did not provide the services they agreed to. Being a truthful and honest person we should have received some kind of reimbursement. Please please read the reviews and take our experiences to heart. Do not use this company for your loved ones. They have no compassion for our loved ones. I would like to know how someone so heartless could still be in business.”
