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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

What Families Say
“From start to finish the entire team was absolutely amazing. Showing kindness, care and compassion throughout the entire process. They treated our loved one with the utmost respect and dignity, going above and beyond any expectations. All of the little touches, thoughtful gestures and sincere efforts were done with pure love. They made a difficult time that much easier to navigate. We have and will continue to sing their praises.”
— Crickett Enos
“When my dad died they were very sweet and treated us with kindness and they even waved a few fees. They are now in my opinion part of my family. Dawn was always in communication with us through the process and even made us feel better through our tough time.”
— Chris Berger
“I have nothing but good things to say. Everyone I’ve spoken to has been incredibly kind and patient as I navigate the complexities of losing a family member that was estranged from me - from another state, no less. As next of kin, I am handling my uncles probate, and I released him to Affordable Cremations as soon as I could. He was clearly handled with a lot of care, and was even sent with an envelope to open a year after his passing. I am not sure what it is yet, but it is incredibly thoughtful to include something like that. Very cost effective, and the staff have all been so pleasant. I have been working with Valerie in particular, and she has been fantastic from start to finish. I couldn’t recommend them more.”
