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.

“Comfort was great to work with in a terrible time for us. I think that we were far from a simple turn-and-burn case. We sent my father here, but later found that his wishes were to be buried instead. We contacted Comfort right away and they were able to pivot us to satisfy his last wishes and work quite a bit outside of their namesake. I worked with Izzy and they even drove him across the state and worked with the receiving cemetery to get everything straightened out. She even gave us the time to say a few words before interment. They were responsive, patient, and did exactly everything right for a difficult time and situation.”

“Let me start by saying this was not the first place I called but when I did, they immediately stood out. This was the only place that didn't pry and just provided information that I asked for in full transparency. Full stop. Nobody needs to know the details of what you're going through when you're just asking for pricing. Turns out that's the actual law by the way. I've heard stories about this industry and all I can say is that there's a special place in hell for those folks. From start to finish these guys were transparent, quick to respond, kind, respectful, and they gave me space. They didn't rush me throughout this awful time & amidst all the chaos. They were also very flexible and accommodating (I was hours out of town). I wished that nobody has to go through this, but when you do, this is as good of an experience that you can ask for.”

“Mr. Keller was so pleasant and helpful. From the time I called him all the way to picking up my Fathers remains. The turn around was amazing and I drove all the way from Tennessee to use his services. If you are looking for Cremation services hands down the best.”
