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 cannot say enough about the top-notch service provided by A Better Place Funeral/Cremations services. From the very first day I contacted them to inquire about arrangements for my mom, Jennifer Connell was truly exceptional. She immediately understood my sense of urgency and even stayed past closing time to ensure that all the necessary arrangements were made within the timeframe we needed. She patiently answered every question I had and made a very overwhelming process feel manageable. During the service the entire staff was polite, professional, and compassionate. Everything was handled with care and dignity, which meant so much to our family. What stands out most to me is that Jennifer’s support didn’t end after the services. She has continued to stay in touch and has checked in on my well-being. She understands how incredibly difficult it is to lose a loved one and has taken time out of her busy schedule to make sure I’m doing okay emotionally. That level of care goes far beyond what I ever expected. I am more than impressed with the service we received. Jennifer truly goes above and beyond, and I am deeply grateful for her compassion and dedication during one of the hardest times in my life.”

They kept me informed and walked me through the difficulty process of helping my mom rest in peace. When I went to pick her up they had given me a pamphlet that offered specialty jewelry to made with her finger prints. I thought that was such an amazing thing to do for a passed loved one. Which I attend on utilizing. These ladies helped me post her obituary and its came out perfectly. Im forever grateful to them. I wish all the best for you.”
