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
“I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Krystin at a difficult time. All I can say is God directed me to call Hart Cremations. I was dealt with such concern, kindness and detailed directions as to how to proceed after my husband’s death. Krystin gave all of her time to help me through all issues, and was always available for my calls and even the ones she initiated to me keeping me informed every step of the process. A wholehearted thank you to Krystin.”
— Darlene Johnson
“I hated having to come here but I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Krystin and her mom are amazing and treated my family with so much respect and care when my dad passed away recently. We really appreciated the transparent pricing, modern atmosphere that made the service a little bit less gloomy, flexibility and ease of accommodating us. Krystin was in touch with our whole family every step of the way and made the process seamless, which was perfect as we were grieving. She was also super flexible as we planned a military service and allowed us to customize it however we pleased. She kept us informed every step of the way on what was happening with dad. I felt very comfortable trusting him in their care. I cannot recommend Hart Cremations more for those who have lost a loved one.”
— Amanda D
“Kristin was so amazing. We lost our son stillborn in December. She constantly kept us up to date on where our son was and that she was personally taking care of him. We got the gift of a lifetime from her as we were able to say goodbye to him one more time before he was cremated. Thank you for everything Kristin ”
