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.

“Terrazas Funeral Home did an outstanding job when it came to dealing with the arrangements and services for our lovely mom who passed away Novsmber 23rd. The staff went and picked our lovely mothers body, Luis Sr. led us through arranging the service very professionally with compassion and care. The staff at Terrazas Funeral Home treated us like family, welcomed everyone and provided the best quality service needed in our time of need. During the services, Luis Sr and his son Luis Jr, showed alot os sympathy, care, professionalism, and compassion to everyone and for that we THANK YOU both and your staff. May God Bless You and Muchas Gracias. Sincerely Maria J Diaz Family 11/23/2024”

“Asked that limousines be omitted from package. They showed up. Gathered and submitted photos for slide show. Slide show didn’t make it, and no explanation was provided. Crowd was invited to throw dirt in upon the lowered casket, which had no preapproval. We have yet to see how the bill will be adjusted. Nice folks. Sad that family’s plans were not more carefully considered.”
