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.

“Truly a blessing to work with. When my uncle unexpectedly passed, Brian was so kind and helpful. He took care of answering every question I threw at him and explained the process from start to finish. Being from out of state I was so afraid of being taken advantage of and wasn’t sure how to handle bringing my uncle home. Michael met with me and explained all of the options. A true professional, every detail was handled with grace and dignity. The cost was very reasonable as well in comparison to other places I had reached out to for information. I highly recommend St. Petersburg Funeral Home to anyone in their time of need.”
— Julia Eckert
“My mother, Diane, passed recently. I called around to a number of funeral homes in the area to find the one that would be best for her cremation and a small viewing for me and my family to see her one last time. St. Petersburg Funeral Home & Memorial Chapel stood out from all of the other homes I called. Michael was extremely helpful in this tough time for me. He was extremely compassionate and did not try to pressure me into any extra services I did not need. We wanted just a small viewing so my dad, brother, and I could say our goodbyes. Michael was very helpful with listing the several options that we could choose from, and I am very happy I chose this home. Michael was very helpful answering any questions I had and stayed in touch in the days leading up to the viewing to make sure everything was in order. It's the sort of service you hope you never have to use, but I was extremely pleased with the job they did.”
