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.

“Be a Tree Cremation took extraordinary care of my mother, (who passed very suddenly and unexpectedly.) From the moment we connected with them, both Rochelle and Brenna were incredibly compassionate, kind, and patient. They took the time to answer all of our questions thoroughly, while guiding us through each step and ensuring the entire process was as seamless as possible. We were especially grateful that they made space for us to have a viewing before proceeding with my mother’s water cremation. Their attention to detail was evident in everything they did, and the thoughtful touches—like being able to customize a Spotify playlist to play during the cremation—meant more than we can express. In an unimaginably difficult moment, Be a Tree Cremation made the experience more bearable, dignified, and filled with care. I would absolutely recommend their services to anyone navigating the loss of a loved one.”

“The entire staff at Be A Tree Cremation is exceptional. Every person we interacted with conveyed genuine care and compassion from the very first conversation. At no point did we feel uncertain about what would happen next—they walked beside us through every step of the process. From our initial contact, through the cremation itself, and all the way to receiving the final death certificates, their professionalism and kindness never wavered. My wife and daughter had selected this service more than a year before we needed it, and when the time came, that decision proved to be one of the best we could have made. They answered every question thoroughly and continued to follow up with us—even three months after our loved one’s cremation. That level of ongoing support speaks volumes about who they are and how deeply they care. If you are looking for a team that will treat your loved one with dignity and guide your family through one of life’s most difficult moments with compassion and clarity, I wholeheartedly recommend Be A Tree Cremation. Thank you, sincerely and from the bottom of my heart.”

“From the early stages of preplanning through the final process the experience was lovely! The staff did a great job of providing clear detailed information. The water cremation process itself is fascinating and when my mom was making her post life plans, she was intrigued by the many benefits of the process! When my mom passed they were caring gentle and respectful. They seemlessly took care of all of the details necessary to make the process smooth. I feel like me and my family were among friends.”
