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 live across the country from my loved one who passed away. Affordable Cremation made my experience with this so much easier than I could have imagined. Even just over the phone their representatives were understanding and so kind. After our business was concluded, they still took that extra step to help me through the whole process of losing someone and the final steps involved. It's more than just appreciation I have for this company but a sence of "family" in dealing with a heartwrenching situation.”
— Ellen McGrath Jeffers
“My support from Affordable in North Sacramento was with Chelsea. Even though everything was done over the phone, she was just as comforting and informative as possible. And patient! I also had texts from her and Julie. I will be contacting Affordable Cremation in the next few weeks to plan for my own service when my time comes. Thanks to the help I received , the process of taking care of my husband went so smoothly in this difficult time. I would rate this establishment with a five star. Peggy Newell”

“Chelsie was absolutely fabulous, very bad time in life and she was one bright spot in the whole situation , from start to finish very professional and knew what she was doing. And to top it off she met me for the picking up of my wife . I would highly recommend them for your needs. It was my third time, very happy!!”
