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.

“Honor thy Pet provided me with comfort and compassion during this difficult time. From the sweet, soft spoken young man who came to my home to pick up my beloved Gracie to the sweet young lady at the Olive St office where I picked up her urn, pawprint and certificate, even gave me a felt heart with flower seeds for her memory garden. Would recommend them.”

“We could not say enough positive things about Honor Thy Pet. For as bad as a situation as it was losing the best dog a family could ask for, they made the whole process smooth and were so sincere. They made my wife the most beautiful pendant necklace, the urn (the dog house) is perfect, just ready for our favorite photo of him. They even threw in a few miscellaneous items. The night we had to drop our beloved Rebel off, Justin made it so smooth, allowed us to take our time and couldn’t of made us feel more comfortable, as hard as it was to leave our baby. To everyone at HTP, THANK YOU with our whole hearts.”
— Jared Hill
“From the home removal to the continued communication is felt that Hutch was well taken care of. The vet we used before had done previous cremation of Lucy and Tiger but this was the first time we used them for a private one. The removal was done quickly and will the most professional care that rivaled the care of humans. While I hope it's a long time before they are needed again if a pet cremation comes up we will be using them again.”
