Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

“I want to give a huge thank you to all the staff at Salser and Dillard, especially to Josh and Mark. My grandma passed away on May 2nd and her wishes were to ship her body to Mexico. Josh helped me with all of the arrangements, we also had her services here before they sent her body to Mexico. He was very professional and made it so easy and so stress free. My family and I I would absolutely recommend this funeral home, as they made us feel so comfortable and took the time to make sure that my grandma’s services were perfect and so special. The night before she was supposed to arrive in Mexico the funeral home in Mexico had a couple questions regarding the flight, I was very worried because it was Friday night and the office was already close then I remembered Mark had given me his cell phone number in case I had a question so I called him, It was almost 9 pm, he answered my call and gave me all the information i needed…Thank you so much for everything.”
