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.

“We express deep appreciation to Anna and the staff at Bucktrout for the support they provided. We knew we could trust them to ensure that everything would be exactly as we wished. Having confidence in their support was an enormous benefit during this stressful time. Unforeseen winter weather created complications, and Anna and the staff never failed to give us the guidance we needed to meet these challenges.”
