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
“D.W. Swick Funeral Home did a great job with my Dad’s funeral. They were nice and easy to deal with and walked my Mom through every step. They gave us time after the funeral before bringing the flowers to my Mom. They have sent text messages checking on the family. My Dad’s funeral was beautiful. Thank you, D. W. Swick! The family of Rick Nash Sr.”

“From the family of Gregory Lee Wilson I cannot say enough wonderful things about D W Swick Funeral Home. They turned one of the hardest moments of my life into something beautiful and memorable. My father died suddenly; so needless to say, my brother and I were still in shock when it came time to plan services. The level of care and attention to detail shown by both David and Anthony is something that we won’t soon forget. Their empathy, kindness and mission to make our loved one’s services a reality is truly unlike anything that I’ve experienced. Beyond that, their prices were more than fair. A wonderful family owned business; no corporate price gouging here! They were able to help us give our father the beautiful, intimate service that I know that he would have wanted and absolutely deserved. As macabre as this sounds, he looked really good. Exactly like himself. Perfectly executed makeup. They didn’t make a fuss about dressing him as a cowboy, gun belt, lasso, boots and chaps included. (That was my dad!) They loved our idea and included that and his military service in all aspects of the service and burial. They didn’t flinch when we included other special things with him in the coffin. Thank you again to the owner and staff of D. W. Swick in Wheelersburg, Ohio. To those considering this funeral home, you truly could not ask for a better group of people to handle your loved one’s services.”
