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.

“I purchased a stretcher from this warehouse about a year and a half ago. The stretcher was poorly assembled and never would collapse in a vehicle. I proceeded to take the stretcher back to the warehouse to either replace it or have someone fix it. One of the reps demonstrates to me that the stretcher DOES work. He stacked a couple of crates to demonstrate. The stretcher miraculously worked for him during his demonstration. The stretcher was brought back to GA to be put into transit. Once the stretcher gets back to GA.........it stops collapsing again. I contact the warehouse again to get some insight on what my options were. And they basically tell me that the warranty is only for one year. And that there is nothing they can do to help me. This stretcher is still brand new. Friendship Funeral supply will NOT send any parts for the stretcher nor will they take an responsibility regarding one of their products malfunctioning. So basically I wasted over 1k buying from this warehouse. This has been a horrible experience. I am sending this to warn all Funeral staff to please reconsider purchasing any stretchers from this company.”
