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.

“I wish I could give them zero stars! The employees work on commission. If you talk to them, be prepared for pushiness. They will do anything to upsell you. It's such a horrible thing to do to a grieving family. And they are disorganized and lose paperwork. Then they expect you to deal with extra appointments and phone calls to clean up their mistakes. Avoid this place at all costs!”

“When my dad died in 2002, the funeral home took care of everything. When mom died 7 years later, I was told I had to go to the cemetery office to "confirm the gravesite". It turns out that new management had taken over and it was a ruse to get a family member there to sell them a plot. It was all I could do to contain my rage as I listened to the sales pitch. I will never do business with these vultures.”
