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
“Jones funeral home has been nothing short of amazing. During one of the hardest moments of my life, they made the entire process feel easy and seamless. Every question I had was answered promptly — whether over the phone or through text — and I never once felt confused or overwhelmed. Brandon was especially incredible. He was so kind, patient, and helpful every step of the way. Even with me being out of state and having to handle everything over the phone, he went above and beyond to make sure everything was smooth, organized, and stress-free. I truly had no issues at all. I’m so grateful for the care and compassion they showed my family. I highly, highly recommend them.”
