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.

“I highly recommend this funeral home, the owner Kirk is so so nice, very compassionate. He's not out to rip people off. My boyfriends parents had 3 relatives done here and I also had my dad cremated through her as well and we were more than taken care of. He fixed my dad up so we could see him before cremation and it was so kind of him to do.”

“Kirk did an amazing job taking care of both of my parents (at different times) My mom passed during COVID and my father passed recently at home. It was very comforting when Kirk arrived at our house and we knew he was in great hands. The services ran very smoothly. I couldn’t have asked for better services.”
— Jennifer Kahoun
“Kirk contacted us to help him with an out of state cremation. Being in the funeral industry we sometimes see a very different side to a business than a family would. However, when I spoke to Kirk I knew that he was compassionate and wanted the best for the families he served. Kirk was our liaison with the family to provide us with all of the necessary information we needed to complete the requested services. He was professional, efficient, and very friendly! I would definitely not hesitate to give him a call if we ever needed anything in the NJ or Eastern PA area. I HIGHLY recommend. -Presleigh Sykes Sykes Funeral Home”
