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.

“One could spend entire days in the grand city of Wilmington, DE, searching out all of the incredible churches and places of worship. This was one such place that we happened across in our travels there. Amazing. The detail work in the pediments and alcoves is simply breathtaking. And that central window is like an eye into the soul of the church. It was a grey, overcast day, but it served to highlight the deep colors and the intricacies of this beautiful church's facade. Any days can be lovely. Even hrey, overcast ones.”
