Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

What Families Say
“These people are a god sent! I found out that my little baby Gisele she was a cockapoo was battling with limes disease that affected her kidneys. We did the best we could to try to help her recover, but sadly, the disease took her. Creekside was so professional and compassionate. She passed away last night And we were able to get her remains cremated the next day. I had her remains the same day. I highly recommend Creekside for when this difficult time happens to you.”
— Jonathan Ossman
“My dog passed away two nights ago. They are closed on Sundays. So I had to wait. I made an appointment for today to get her cremated. They are very kind and understanding. I have her ashes in a urn. They really went our of their way to make sure everything went smoothly and comfortably. I highly recommend coming here. The urn was nicely packaged and the bag is nice as well. Come here if you want people who understand what you are going through with a loss and comfort you.”
— Kelvin Duran
“Ive had all my pets cremated here and they always did well. Except today, I go to the office to pick up my dogs ashes and Ive had her a very long time she was part of our family and my best friend, I asked the gentleman to please not cremate her collar with her and because he was in a "Hurry" he stuck her in with her collar...so when I went to pick her up, the man said the guy was in a hurry and then showed me some burnt up dog tags that where left of my dear Bellah..that isn't how I wanted to remember her her and I'm not good at confrontation...I'm very upset this happened because I trusted them to take care of my Bellah she was my everything. This experience was awful!!!!!!”
