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.

“Mario was an absolute blessing to work with. From the very beginning, he was professional, easy to talk to, and truly knowledgeable about every step of the process. He took the time to listen to our vision and offered recommendations that fit perfectly, all while helping us save money without compromising the quality or presentation. The service turned out absolutely beautiful from start to finish. Every detail reflected care, compassion, and excellence. We’re so grateful for Mario’s guidance and the way he made a difficult time a little easier to navigate. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of funeral services. He will treat your loved one and your family with genuine respect and care.”

“So disappointed in the security here. The place was beautiful, the service was beautiful but after the funeral the security guy came into the main drive way very hot almost hit a child of the deceased. Then yelled at one of the lady's attending the funeral to move her car. She said who is you talking to and he then mentioned putting bullets in her car. After he sped off into a parking spot we all thought he was going to hit her car but parked into a spot and proceeded to talk very rudely to some one who just lost a loved one from bullets. Very unprofessional and disgusting behavior!”
— Dani Hall
“On behalf of the family of Theodora Austin we want to thank the Strowders Funeral Home for showing so much love and compassion in the planning of her funeral. You all made a difficult time in our life run smooth throughout the entire process. Big shoutout to Mario for facilitating the crowning of this queen by her sons. Forever grateful to this team.”
— Patricia Austin
