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.

“I want to express my deepest gratitude to Macauley and Wallace, and especially to Elizabeth Roberts, for the exceptional care and support during an incredibly challenging time. After losing my brother, I had to travel from Virginia to California to arrange his transfer back home for burial. Elizabeth was truly phenomenal—professional, caring, and full of empathy. She made a very difficult process so much easier for me and my family. No one ever wants to face the loss of a loved one, but if you ever find yourself in need of help with these arrangements, I wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to Elizabeth. She is a true rockstar and a blessing to anyone going through this. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, Elizabeth, and thank you to the entire team at Macauley and Wallace. Our whole family is deeply appreciative.”

“They did a great job. My aunt recently died and my family had no idea where to get started or what the heck to do. Steve and Sky helped us 100% along the way. They also did a marvelous job on working with us with a tight budget. Thank you so much for the hospitality and help. We really appreciate everything you guys did. God Bless you”

“They made this unfortunate situation as smooth as possible. Steve always checked in, called to see what we needed, and made himself available for us. He made us feel comfortable every step of the way. Ian was always 2 steps ahead taking care of all our needs the day of, with an approachable attitude. Everyone working there provided us with exceptional respect, comfort, and care, even if I had not met them before.”
