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.

“The experience my family has had to endure with Chapel of the Valley is inexcusable. Horrible customer service with no sympathy or urgency to help or call back. Very slow to reply and if we call we are met with a very curt, almost angry responses making a difficult time of losing a loved one even worse. I highly recommend finding another provider so your loved ones won’t be burdened with atrocious and uncaring staff like this horrible place.”

“Chapel of the Valley was extremely helpful with the arrangements for my dad. They helped us find a suitable casket, that our Marine Corps Veteran dad would have approved of. They were very respectful to our family and set up the burial at the National Cemetery for us. With the help from Chapel of the Valley, my mom felt so much relief knowing our dad, was having an honorable respectful service and burial. Thank you again for all the assistance. The Stockton Family.”

“My mother’s service was held here May 25, 2018. The caring and compassion from the staff was 5 stars plus! Jody was attentive to my family and I and made sure my mother’s final farewell was what she wanted! I can’t thank him enough for making a time of grief as easy as possible. I would recommend them to anyone who has a loved one that has passed.”
