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.

“Thanks to a dear sweet friend...he talked me into taking my dog for a walk out to see my parents I don't think I would have done this. I have been able to go see them a few times but do to health and transportation issues I'm unable to make it to see them anymore for now We miss going 💔🥲”

“I was here to visit the final resting place of Robert Ripley, the man who created the famous Odditorium and the man behind "Ripley's Believe It or Not." And in the process of finding it, there was a lot of searching and walking the cemetery. It is in very good condition, one of the "lawn" style cemeteries rather than "park" style. Laid out in lines with sections and lanes between them, it's an easy walk and in fact a number of folks were here that were clearly not mourners but walkers. I would suggest that if you are walking, do so respectfully and no, dogs are NOT permitted in the cemetery at any time.”

“It's very well maintaining cemetery, Have a few family members here, They did a very nice setup for my brother n law. Bathrooms are at the very top at the office. So if you have to go, it's a long walk.”
