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.

“My son and his two young children did a winter hike with me here last week. The park is very clean and well maintained. Parking was free this time of year. We hiked on the paved trail because we wanted to bring the wagon with us in case the kids got tired. It was a little icy in spots, but you just had to be careful. It was a wonderful experience!”

“Fantastic spot for a family day out! The playground is well-kept and perfect for kids to burn off energy. We really enjoyed the restrooms and bathhouse facilities, which were clean and convenient. It’s a 4/5 only because it can get quite busy on weekends, but otherwise, it's a local gem for swimming and picnicking.”

“My first time at this park. Very clean nice beach area. Bathrooms were really clean which surprised me many places do not keep up with bathrooms they smell and most time no paper toilet. This places was very well kept. Great for fishing has grills and a lot of shaded areas plenty of trees. Will definitely be going back”
