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.

“I cannot express in words how much of a blessing Hernandez Funeral Home is to me and my family. They made the process of laying my father to rest pain free and guided me through each step being a child who has already lost 1 parent and now losing my other parent and having to do this all by myself it was a god send to walk through the doors of this funeral home. The staff were compassionate and caring and understanding! They are reasonable with pricing and beautiful selection of items to lay your family to rest. The owners are so hard working and hands on. They allowed time for me and my family to grieve with my father in person before cremation. I could not recommend this funeral home enough.
