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
“My beautiful boy passed away suddenly on a Saturday. We unfortunately had to put him in our freezer until we could make arrangements. I called Monday morning and spoke to Sam and he was so kind and helpful, he came out to my house within the hour to get my baby for me. He and an associate lifted him and put him in their vehicle (and it wasn’t easy, he was very heavy and the moving blanket was frozen so it was hard to watch and hard for them to lift) but they did it. They were so easy and gentle with him. Sam took our information and we paid right in our living room. I asked for his paw prints to be put on paper and he did that for me and laminated them, as well as a clay paw print and a bag of fur. They engraved his box and it’s so nice. Very thankful for Sam and Elizabeth, who helped get my baby’s obituary online with his photo. I highly recommend them, they are professional and work in a timely manner. We will absolutely use them in the future. Pricing is very affordable also. Thank you both for taking care of our boy and being so understanding.”

“Absolutely beautiful! We lost our sweet Ninners and Family Pet Cremations stayed in contact with updates the entire time for the process, they even picked her up from the emergency vet we had to take her to that awful night! They understand how an animal is also family and its such a wonderful thing they do! We got to bring her home today and it was so heartwarming! We miss her daily! I would 100% trust them with any pets! They are compassionate and sweet! Thank ya'll so much for the good you do for our pets, which are also our family!! 🩶🩶”

“To some people pets are just animals, to others they are a part of the family. Sam and Elizabeth treat you and your pet like family. I never met Sam but talked to him on the phone and throughout the conversation I knew he was a very caring and sweet individual. When I took my sweet girl Chloe to them Elizabeth was absolutely lovely. She was so kind and compassionate. I'm glad I took Chole to them. I highly recommend their service.”
