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.

“Arthur and his staff were exceptional! Their knowledge, integrity, professionalism, and service were outstanding. They provided a supportive and comforting environment for our family as we mourned the loss of our Aunt. When we first met with Alan to make initial arrangements for our Aunt’s service, we knew we were in good hands. No detail was left unattended and everything was explained along the way with clear communication. The level of dignity and respect shown toward our deceased Aunt and compassion to our family exemplifies the best human aspects of Arthur’s Funeral Home. Thank you for your kindness during this difficult time! We highly recommend your service!”

“I’m upset that I forgot to write this last year because I cannot praise this funeral home enough!! Alan and the kind woman who work here were AMAZING! I used Artur’s Funeral Home last summer when my grandfather passed away. My grandfather wanted to be buried in Poland where he was born. The day of his death my parents and I came here and so quickly and kindly, Alan helped us with everything. There was no pressure and he was so professional, and made the entire process so easy. Every single thing from transportation from the hospital to the funeral home to the embalming to the casket choices and transportation to Poland AND communicating with the Polish funeral home for us was outstanding. I didn’t have to speak a single word to the funeral home in Poland - I just gave Alan the name / contact info and he / his team handled it all. I really am still astonished at how easy the process was during such a difficult time. Cannot thank Alan & his team enough for the outstanding job.”
