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.

“If I was able to give a 10 star rating I would. Jenna and Sam were so attentive and professional. They made sure my aunty services were great. They made sure my family was supported through the whole process. If I ever need any services again I will definitely come to you guys! Jessica Grant”

“We have unfortunately have had to use the Renners twice in the last couple of years, but we could not have asked for better service from a funeral home. The Renners went above & beyond helping us plan my father’s and father-in-laws funeral services. Everyone that we had encountered with were very kind, professional, and met our needs and requests. They are all a wonderful family to work with & we highly recommend them. Thank you, Renners for everything.”

“My mom, a Hospice patient, quietly passed away with her children by her side. Renner Funeral Staff arrived and compassionately attended to the task in hand. Renner Funeral Home arranged a beautiful turnaround service, second to none. The Staff, personable, friendliness and professional support handled all the obstacles and we had a wonderful experience.”
