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.

“SNW came up to Ashford and cleaned our headstone and markers for our family. The job exceeded expectations and their price quote was over about $700 less than what we were originally quoted from another company. We got the power wash service and the stones look brand new. Great company and they sent me a card to let me know the work was done! I'll let you determine which are the before and which are the after pics. :)”
