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.

What Families Say
“One of the newer National Cemeteries, this one was dedicated in 2015 and is designed to accommodate as many as 83,000 veterans. And despite being recent, the fields of white stone markers goes on for quite some distance. Sobering to know that this many people who served this country have passed on. If you're near Tallahassee (and this IS Memorial Day Weekend when I write this), please stop by and pay your respects. It is because of their efforts and sacrifices that we have what we do.”
