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.

“My beloved mother passed away on December 12, 2023. My mother fell in love with this new location, who would’ve known months later it’d be her funeral. We wanted to honor my mom’s wishes and as someone who had no clue as to how funeral services worked, Nieto Funeral home staff especially Mrs. Farmer were very helpful. Everything was explained step by step to us. My mom’s funeral was more than perfect and thanks to Nieto Funeral home my mom had one of the most beautiful farewells I have ever seen. She was definitely very well taken care of and so much thought was put into her services by staff. My family was also shown so much empathy and compassion, something that is very much needed in these difficult times. Thank you so much Nieto Funerals for everything, we have so much love for this place.”
