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.

“My husband passed away recently in a Memory Care facility in Rock Hill, South Carolina and I was overwhelmed with the thought of the countless arrangements I needed to make from a distance as I planned his funeral on Hilton Head. Jim and Susan Kieth took our family under their wings and seamlessly guided us through the entire process. Jim even suggested and arranged for an honor guard, making my husband’s service even more special. I highly recommend their services!!!”

“In February 2024 my father-in-law passed away at Hilton Head Hospital. He was elderly and vacationing from Pennsylvania during the winter months. He loved Hilton Head. At the time of his death, Jim Keith was my first and only phone call. He personally answered my phone call after hours, answered my initial questions and then promptly transferred my father-in-law's remains back to his funeral home. He walked us through the necessary arrangements to transfer his body back to Pennsylvania, where we were able to have a traditional funeral and burial service in his hometown the following week. Jim was much more than a caring and compassionate funeral director, he was a friend who helped us through the most difficult of times. I highly recommend the services of Keith Funeral and Cremation Services. Working with an independently owned funeral home and funeral director made all the difference.”

“I can’t say enough kind things about Keith’s funeral home, they were a true blessing! Being new to the area and having an unexpected death in our family, I was fortunate enough to have been given their contact information. We were treated with such kindness and care. Jim was extremely professional and understanding with regards to our needs. The level of support and attention to detail that was given was wonderful. Thank you so much for making this difficult time as easy as possible.”
