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.

“My grandmother passed unexpectedly in May. As the eldest daughter I immediately started doing what was needed to help my mother when I stumbled upon this location. I read the reviews and thought “too good to be true” but inquired. I was immediately put in contact with Tami and from the moment we got on the phone I knew that this was the place for our family. We took a tour, sat with her and when I say she brought our vision to LIFE, I meant it. Around every corner Tami and her staff were there making sure we were okay, checking on us and making the day of the celebration just that.. a day to celebrate a wonderful woman. I can not thank Tami and the staff enough for bringing us peace during such an emotional and crucial time for my family. Tami, from the bottom of my heart. Thank you. The day was everything we dreamt of and more.”
