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.

What Families Say
“Captain Tony and Jim navigated our burial at sea for my brother today. Everything went great. Captain Tony made helpful Suggestions where needed. He was also helpful, kind and graceful. They had coffee and refreshments on board for us which was unexpected and even a sound speaker to connect to my iPhone through Bluetooth to play a memorial playlist tribute throughout the trip for my brother. He even took a video and forwarded it to me from up above when we gave my brother his final cannonball into the sea. Thanks again for a beautiful memorial.”
— Daniel Hesketh
“Thank you to Beyond the Sea Memorial. We had an amazing experience everything seemed to be done so well. Honestly my family and I stressed about what we would have to do and thought it was super difficult. Honestly Beyond the Sea Memorial made this process very easy and even helped me understand the documents I needed. It was 8 of us and 2 of them were under 10yrs old. They made us feel comfortable and felt nice taking part in everything. Thank you again.”
— Yesenia Zambrano
“A very blessed time with family as we said goodbye to our Mamma. Played and danced to her favorite songs, shared pics and memories. Captain Tony even did a full circle around her ashes and rose petals, so beautiful in the sparkling sun! Beautiful boat and caring crew! Highly recommend Beyond the Sea service-also her favorite Bobby Darin song!”
