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.

“Missy and her staff were attentive understanding and supportive. They had every detail down correctly and were efficient in handling our mom. I highly appreciate and recommend them for your loved ones . Thanks again .❤️ The Russell family”
— Cindy
“With the sudden death of my young wife, I was in no condition to think of everything that needed to be done to arrange her funeral. Missy, the supervisor, met with my family immediately and sat with us for hours. She walked us through every step of the process and patiently explained all of our options. Once we had decided what we wanted, everything was taken care of for us. She also handled my father-in-law's funeral with the same care. I highly recommend Moran's Funeral Home.”
— Mr. Reed
“The service that this family business provided for my family from start to finish was stellar. Missy left no stone unturned and respected our wishes by LISTENING to what we wanted during this sad time. Thank you!!!!!”
