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
“Our experience with Jeffcoat-Trant has always been compassionate and respectful and kind. When my husband passed in April, they were there for us and did an amazing job of making our family feel safe and taken care of. We have had nothing but positive experiences with them over the years as we lost our parents. We truly appreciate their kindness during difficult times ♥️”
— Janice Lofland
“I would add a few more stars if I could. They are very pleasant people and do all the work for you for such a great price. I was in charge of organizing my grandfather's funeral, and I have never even organized a funeral in my life. However, they made it a breeze and the memorial service was wonderful. My grandfather was a veteran of the air force, so he got the American Flag draped over his casket. The way my grandfather looked was done very well and looked at peace. The Jeffcoat Trant Funeral home also reaches out to you several times to be supportive and ask if there's anything you need. This is a GREAT funeral home and I will recommend to everyone that has the need. I am even going to eventually prepay them for my funeral. I know that they are very caring and will get everything perfect like they did for my very loved grandfather. Thank you guys so very much for what you did and still do.”
— Jennifer Tyson
“I have never experienced the kind of compassion and care that I and my family received from the people at Jeffcoat-Trant mortuary as they helped with the arrangements for my husband who passed suddenly in April. I continue to get texts of encouragement and support as I’m still dealing with my loss. I’m so glad my sister recommended them and will be letting others know of their wonderful service.”
