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.

“Very unprofessional! Rude to family members and pallbearers. Chris forgot to take off our Dads metals and ribbons to give to the family. His brother Kevin was 35 mins late to the VA Cemetery in Preston. Very unhappy with them.”
— Sherri Fleming
“Very very unprofessional business. Chris Grey shouldn't be in business. This place sent a letter to my girlfriends lawyer claiming she was incapable of handling the estate a month after the funeral. He had no reason for doing this. I see others of you have said Chris Grey is very professional but I’m telling you I wouldn’t let him bury my worst enemy. Goto to Vine and Ranfrance or Makken you will be way happier.”
— Gary Clark
“Larry and Chris have always been helpful, professional, and family focused. Each family funeral they have taken care of for us has been the reflection of Christ. Thank you.”
— Al Lee
