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.

“Allen & Shaw Cremations is our family's crematorium. They have been there for our family since 2000. They truly take care of both the family and the member that has passed. Always very caring and respectful and not out to take advantage of a grieving family. We won't go to anyone else. They are the very best!”
— Emma Rodriguez
“Tammy and Team were very kind, respectful, thorough and helpful through this process. No one ever wants to think about cremating their loved one, but it’s something we will all have to do at some point and they are nice people that are not trying to steal your money and do an honest job. Thank you so much for your help during our hard time.”
— Jacque O
“We have used Allen and Shaw a couple times and we're very pleased with how helpful and kind they were to us. My mother is 92 and had already chosen Allen and Shaw to take care of her when the time comes. She trusts them and that means a lot.”
— Sue Onayak
