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.

“As an industry professional I extend my professional praise for producing the finest of caskets for our clients when needed. As an individual who has had to carry out the task of funerals for family and friends I share my profound appreciation to owners of Pettegrew and Sons Casket Co. They produced and provided to us all the most beautiful caskets when requested. If it is quality, it is Pettegrew; if it is personal attention to detail it is Pettegrew; if it is just wanting it to be special, and right........ it is always going to be Pettigrew Casket Company.”

“Went in for a simple inquiry and was met with the most disrespectful and rude people simply because a phone call wasn’t made ahead of time, again just went in to try and get a inquiry wasn’t even going to actually get them to do anything, so if you want to always walk in eggshells just to do simple business. Go here.”
