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.

“This is where my mother had her services in 2005, so when my sister died unexpectedly at 56, this is where we reached out to, Andrew approached our situation without all the gloom and doom one might expect. He was personable and no high pressure sales pitch. He listened to us and gave his advice as to how other customers did it. No idea is too big or too small and he could come up with a plan to make it happen. I will admit that they are not the most budget friendly funeral home but you get what you pay for. They even do follow up afterwards like on holidays or your loved ones birthdays because they know these days are the toughest”

“The unexpected passing of my wife was a devastating and traumatizing experience. So much stress was put upon my two sons and I, as we had to make difficult decisions regarding my wife's burial arrangements. But Max A. Sass & Sons made the process much smoother and easier. From the choosing of my wife's urn, to deciding which coffin and flowers were to be used at my wife's funeral, to deciding what my wife wore at her funeral, the team at Max A. Sass & Sons showed us the utmost patience, kindness, and compassion. Their knowledge, in addition to their willingness to make last-minute changes to our arrangements, are solid evidence of their commitment, expertise, and understanding. My sons and I cannot thank the team at Max A. Sass & Sons enough for everything that they have done for us. Megan B., Nicole T., Jackie M., Elizabeth, Paul H., and everyone else working behind the scenes deserve the utmost praise and recognition for their commitment and professionalism. Truly, the team at Max A. Sass & Sons made a terrible experience much easier. Peter K.”

“Sara and Max Sass helped me during the time of my grandmother's passing. They treated her and me with the utmost dignity and respect, and we're absolutely accommodating to whatever needs I had.I was not aware that funeral arrangements had to be in place prior to someone passing as to not delay the pickup from the nursing home, and Sara was quickly worked with me the day of to schedule pickup and handle all cremation and services after on very short notice. I am very grateful for their services and professionalism, and would very much recommend.”
