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.
“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.

What Families Say
“We had my Dad’s funeral there and Lauren and team took care of every detail including setting up Military honors. I couldn’t have asked for a better send off for my father. I cannot recommend Plantsville Funeral Home enough.”
— Scott Kennedy
“The reader, I am sure, will agree the last step with our parents is very difficult and emotional. We want to celebrate their life in a memorable way. A manner with which we can rest in peace as we send them to heaven. For that to happen you need a professional, understanding, and flexible team at the Funeral Home. Lauren and Mark exceeded my expectations. I was listened to very well and they treated me as a member of their family. I felt their honest support with the multitude of tasks required for a successful conclusion. The way the understood my mother was also noteworthy. The flower arrangements displayed at the Altar was exceptionally beautiful. They had all the colors my mother loved. The same arrangement was transferred to the Titanium Theater where we held "the Celebration of Life." Lauren and Mark's suggestion of a Columberium nitch was the best idea to rest my Mother's Ashes in a respectful way. Great suggestion. From my point of view, Plantsville Memorial Funeral Home Staff reduced the stress thay comes with these times significantly. I, honestly, recommend their services.”
— George Vargas
