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.

“They did a fantastic job through out the whole process from the private drop off, to picking up our dog that passed unexpectedly. We called them, they walked us through the steps to schedule a private drop off, they were so sincere about the grieving process and explaining things very well. They had our girl for 6 days and let us know right away when she was ready for pick up. It’s also very well priced. I will recommend people if they are ever in this situation.”

“On January 17th I lost my best friend of 19 years. I decided to have Cali cremated because we didn’t exactly have the right place to burry her. I looked around online and discovered LMC . Although they only had a few reviews I decided to choose them based on the handful that were on here . I am happy with my decision. The staff was exceptional , kind and compassionate . I lost her on a Saturday so the office wasn’t open.All I had to do was text them and they would be there to take her in. They had Cali for about a week before I was able to pick her up. They included a framed digital image of her paw print and fur trimmings in a cute little glass bottle. I would most definitely Recommend LMC if you are looking to cremate your fur baby.”

“Cannot say enough good about this company. My kitty has as hit on a Sunday. Everywhere I called wanted to charge a large fee to come in on a day off. Lake Michigan crematory met us at no extra fee. They were warm and welcoming.gave us time to say final goodbyes making one of my hardest days a little easier. They gave us a paw print and fur trimming at no extra fee. And the cremation price alone was much more reasonable then other locations. I'm forever greatful for the care and compassion they showed .”
