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.

“Our experience with Atlantis Society was truly exceptional. Wes and the entire crew, Captain James and First mate Robert were very professional and great to work with. They provided outstanding service. From start to finish everything was beyond expectation. I highly recommend Atlantis Society for anyone considering a burial at sea.”
— Sonia Kaiser
“Everything in our experience was incredible. The Captain and his first mate were so kind, helpful and respectful of our time. It was worth every penny to give my grandmother her wishes to be at sea. It was a celebratory day more than it was sad. Thank you Atlantis Society”
