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.

“We had the privilege of working with Frank and Tanner at Independent Funeral Services - a father and son team - for my dad, Terry Browning’s, service. From the very beginning, they didn’t feel like “funeral directors.” They felt like family. They made our family feel comfortable, understood, and genuinely cared for during one of the most emotional weeks of our lives. There was something incredibly grounding about the way they worked together - steady, kind, and human. We loved that about them. They are the kind of people you would invite to a family gathering or even a camping trip. That may sound unusual to say about a funeral home, but it speaks to the warmth and authenticity they brought into the room. They truly went above and beyond to accommodate our quirky family and all the meaningful details we wanted included. Nothing felt like too much. They handled everything with professionalism, dignity, and heart. We are deeply grateful for the way they cared for our dad and for us.”

“We are so grateful for Frank, and Tanner, and Garret at Independent Funeral Services. This was my first time having to arrange a funeral, and they just did such a great job for us. They're thoughtful, and caring, and made everything as easy as it could have been in such a difficult circumstance. Thank you very much, guys.”
— Rob Mouritsen
“We were so pleased with the compassionate service we received from Tanner and Garrett. There were many questions we had and they were so helpful answering them. They went above and beyond to help us through the burial process. And, the cost savings were a welcomed relief. Thank you Tanner and Garrett (and Frank) from the bottom of our hearts.”
