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
“Yancey Funeral Services held my father-in-laws service today. I was involved with everything from the beginning with planning until the end. I cannot say enough good things about this funeral home. From the moment they were contacted, we have been greeted with love, compassion and care. They went above and beyond to make sure our finally “see you later” was everything we wanted and then some. They even included chips and M&M’s as a surprise for the service as they found out this was my father in laws favorite foods. Mark and Austin were absolutely wonderful. We highly recommend Yancey Funeral Services. Thank you for helping us make everything perfect.”
