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.

“Very great funeral home. Jerry and Christy were very professional and full of information for my mom when my grandma passed away. They had a guy Zach who came out to pick up my grandma he was also very professional and respectful to my family. The whole crew knows what they are doing. Hope I don’t have to deal with another funeral soon. But when the time comes it will be at this place. Miss you grandma.”
