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.

“Perry’s funeral home is the absolute worst funeral home I’ve ever tried to work with. I’m a pastor and I’ve worked with many of them. My father recently passed away. Someone in my family recommended them as an “excellent” place to hold a funeral. I tried to call and set up services, and they were rude, short, and practically hung on me. The man that answered told me he refused to work with me, apparently because another funeral home told me immaculate information and he didn’t want to take the time to explain to me why that was. Either way, after further investigating, this place is outdated, small, and in no way a place I want to honor or celebrate the life my father lived.”

“Perry’s was fantastic! My mother had been ill for a year and not eating for several months. She was a beautiful woman and she was proud. We were so afraid that her beauty would be able to be shown. Not only was she beautiful, she looked more like she did 20 years ago- thank you to everyone at Perry’s Funeral Home. I was truly blessed to see my beautiful mother the way she was before this illness took her from me.”
