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.

“My mom passed away August 21st, 2025. Before she passed, she told us that she wanted a female mortician and that she wanted to be buried by Small's Mortuary. When she passed, I called Small's and informed them of her wishes. They promptly sent their female mortician to retrieve her body. Once there they informed us of the process and the steps that they were going to do before they did anything! We made her funeral arrangements with Desi! He was so professional and caring! He also made sure that we understood ever step in the process. His compassion made us feel like we knew our mom was in good hands! Then comes the day of her funeral! I have never seen a funeral this beautiful before! When we exited the Sprinter, we were greeted by the funeral directors expressing their sympathy & giving us instructions on what we were supposed to do, which was very helpful. When we entered the church, the setup was beautiful! They had some of her flowers in the front of the church which was beautiful. I have never seen a casket on wood grained pedestals before! Even her flower arrangements were on the same matching pedestals. Her casket had rose gold on it and they even included rose gold flowers in her casket spray! They had every detail done perfectly! Small's Mortuary is next level in the funeral business, from compassion, to professionalism to affordability! It was just a comforting and lovely experience from start to finish! I know my mom was proud of everything!”

“Hands down amazing!! My mom’s funeral was beautiful! The staff is phenomenal! Any questions you might have no matter the time of the day, they will answer them with a smile on their faces. It feels like home, it felt as though I was conversing with an aunt, uncle or cousin when my sister, dad and myself was planning my mom’s funeral. Beautiful, peaceful and at ease, knowing that my mom was in great hands. Thank you again, our family is grateful and appreciative, for the love that was shown and for the amazing business that you own and operate! Thanks again!!”
