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.
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.

“The whole staff was really respectful and thoughtful through the whole process even when picking her body up to picking up the ashes. Will was such a kind person when picking up my grandmothers ashes and offered kind words. Really recommend this place, very transparent on prices.”

“During a tough time, it’s always helpful to find a resource, and that’s what they were. It seemed fine. I wished they would respond to emails and voicemails, as it’s hard to be the persistent one during grief. Other than that, I felt a $150 flat rate to send ashes via USPS was a clear margin grab….I get that everyone has to make money but that seemed a bit blatant and excessive to me. However, I had to comply as I don’t live in Texas. Other than that, it was fine. Not stellar, not terrible. I personally dislike being interrupted and talked over constantly, and I realize it’s a communication style, often culturally embedded, I found it irritating and unhelpful, but that’s just me.”
