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.

“It was my first time visiting The DuPont Funeral Home. The home is a true Bristol gem. I was very impressed not only with the gorgeous facility and well preserved rooms, but also with the professionalism we were welcomed with. A very unique place if you appreciate history and wonderful hospitality.”

“DuPont is a beautiful, family owned funeral home. My father had passed away unexpectedly and my family chose DuPont to take care of his arrangements. You can tell that Ryan is passionate about what he does and helping families in such a critical time of their lives is what he strives for. He is patient and kind and he makes sure that you are comfortable during arrangements. He will go above and beyond to make sure you leave knowing that he will have everything taken care of. Robert, Diane, and Ryan along with the rest of the staff are wonderful and I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience with this funeral home.”
