Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

What Families Say
“I worked with Dawn at Zacherl Funeral home when my Grandmother passed away. She was amazing. She was so tender and caring and knew exactly what to say to make this easier for my family. She is very professional and was truly created to do what she does. My Grandma looked fabulous and we received a lot of compliments on how great she looked. The funeral for Grandma was in Illinois but that wasn't an issue either. Dawn coordinated everything with the other funeral home so it was seamless for my family. I can't say enough good things about the experience we had working with Dawn and Zacherl Funeral Home. If you want your loved one to be treated with dignity and respect this is the place you should take them.”
