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
“As much of a bad experience it is to take care of a loved one’s last wishes, these people make it so much easier on you. Matthew was wonderful. He went above & beyond to locate where my sister’s body was actually being held, found a quicker route for transportation to lower the cost, and even called around to locate her social security card since I’m in a different state. He kept good communication with me throughout the entire process & was always kind every time we spoke. Not to mention their prices are very reasonable & the process was very quick compared to my previous experience here in California. Would 100% recommend”
