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.

“Amazing staff. While I wish the circumstances were different, Paul and Rose were truly incredible during the planning of my mother’s funeral. They were compassionate, patient, and supportive every step of the way. I also don’t want to forget Julian who transported my precious Mother. He was so kind and empathetic when picking her up from the hospital. I am so grateful I chose Harrell Funeral Home! They did an amazing job and made a very difficult time a little easier for our family. I am so appreciative. Sending a huge thank you. Lindsey Haass (Hairston)”

“I recently worked with this funeral home and was deeply impressed by the compassion and professionalism they showed during a difficult time for me. Paul, in particular, was incredibly kind, thoughtful, and respectful throughout all my interactions with him. He made everything feel calm and manageable when we needed it most. The care and dignity they provide truly stand out. I’m very grateful for their support and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of compassionate guidance.”

“When my Mimi passed away unexpectedly last January, I went into absolute shock. My brain couldn't even work. Once I got past the initial shock of having the ambulance arrive and realizing there was nothing more they could do to keep her here with me, I knew I needed to call a funeral home. There was a funeral home down the street that could have received my call, but I wanted Mimi to be taken care of by people I know are wonderful human beings who would care for her in the most dignified way possible. I know the Harrells. They are a wonderful family, and every single person who works for them is an outstanding individual. I knew they would care for my Mimi the way I would. From the moment I called them, everything they did made me feel like I was part of their family and that they would take the greatest care in the world of both me and my Mimi. During the worst time of my life, they treated us with such compassion and dignity. I can't say enough nice things about Harrell Funeral Homes. God bless them for being so wonderful to us when we needed it most.”
