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.

“Whoever your female hearse driver is, she needs lessons in driving, reading and decency. She had vehicles lined up behind her on the interstate while traveling in the left hand lane instead of getting over in the right hand lane like slower traffic is supposed to. Then when I passed by and looked over at her to see if she was okay or what was going on she gave me the most disgusting face. It is not a very good look for your company or for her.”
— Morgan Stafford
“The staff and Mr Harris were very compassionate and helpful. While they deal with death daily, they werent dismissive and we were not treated as a number. They listened to us and were patient with all our questions and concerns. They took excellent care of our loved one and our entire family. There was no high pressure sales tactics, just facts and sensitivity. I am thankful we used their services and my loved one was treated with dignity and respect. Thank you!”
— Jennifer Braswell
