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.

“Jeff and Todd have helped me say goodbye to 3 of my favorite people. My son, my dad, and now my mom. They were compassionate and reasonable.”
— Candace Myers
“We are incredibly grateful for the compassionate and professional service we received from Brant Funeral Home during the loss of our Nana. The staff went above and beyond, treating us like family and making a difficult process much easier to bear. The facility was beautiful and calming, and the arrangements were handled with such care. We especially appreciated the beautiful casket spray, it was lovely. My grandfather still reflects on how beautiful it was in his time of grief as Nana was all about her flowers and she would have just loved it. We highly recommend their services.”
