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.

“From the time we stepped into Small’s we were treated like family. Carlos Black made the arrangement process so easy. He listened to every detail and delivered! The night of the Wake Ms. Lena made sure everything was order and even gave me a little extra time with my momma. Marshall, Salta and Mr. Floyd made the day of the funeral go so smoothly. They treated us like family! They made sure we were comfortable and anything we needed they were right by our side. My family and I can’t thank them enough!”

From start to finish, everything was handled with excellence, compassion, and professionalism. Carlos and his entire staff were absolutely magnificent.

Their guidance brought us comfort and peace during a moment when it was needed most. The level of detail, organization, and genuine concern shown to our family was unmatched. They truly honored our loved one with dignity and grace, and for that we will forever be thankful.
