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.

“I have several family members (8 to be exact) that have their resting place at this cemetary. I honor them at every holiday and birthdays. It is very disturbing when you spend over a hundred dollars for plants and you go back the next day and they are gone. I feel like cameras should be put up to catch these theives. There is a special place for people that take off graves. I have also complained over and over about the steps. They are crumbling and falling apart and someone is going to get hurt. And it has beautiful statues of Jesus but they are all turning green and need to be cleaned. My hubby and I thought about getting plots here but if they are not going to take any better care than this then we are giving a second thought to it.”
