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 want to sincerely thank The Crawford Family for the incredible care they provided for my father’s homegoing service. Losing a loved one is never easy, but their compassion, organization, and attention to detail brought comfort to our family during such a difficult time. Every part of the service, from the preparation to the final moments was handled with dignity and respect. Your team went above and beyond to make sure everything was beautiful and meaningful. We truly appreciate the love and support you showed us throughout the entire process. Thank you for helping us honor my father’s memory in such a special way. Sincerely Natashia White & Family”

“The absolute worst. I do not recommended them AT ALL. They sat people on the graves of U.S. Veterans, even after I asked them to move them and explained why.. BEFORE THE grave side service. Not only did they refuse to MOVE the seating, they looked at me and ignored me. No Respect for my Uncle who was being laid to rest or his Father and Brother. The military detail came over to try and explain, but that wasn't their job, it was yours and you failed. I would not bury a stray animal with you all.”
