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.

“ATX Cremation was wonderful. During such a hard time for our family, they were so easy to work with, empathetic and supportive. Special mention to Gabriel who was our main point of contact and hand held us through the process. He was very empathetic and was very proactive in his communication. And to Julian who was very caring when handling the logistics of transporting up our loved one right after his passing. In addition to the wonderful service, they are also very reasonably priced compared to other options. I am very glad we reached out to them.”
— William Irizarry
“ATX Cremation was over the top helpful and communicative from beginning to end. I was informed throughout the process of what was being done and what would be next. Gabe provided a fantastic balance between extending sympathy and providing details. I could tell their team worked well together and couldn't recommend them more!”
— Joshua Contreras
“During this difficult time, ATX provided the assistance I needed professionally. I was very lucky because my main contact was Elena and she was so gentle and kind throughout the entire process. I lost my mother and Elena was incredibly compassionate while maintaining professionalism throughout the entire journey.. Thank you, Elena!”
— Elsa Kern
