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.
“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.

What Families Say
“They were very compassionate and responsive. My furbaby passed on a Sunday, while they were technically closed. But the emergency line was answered right away and Ryan called me within 10 minutes to discuss arrangements. Ryan gave me all the pricing and option info and told me how to preserve my baby for the night. Ms. Vicki was so sweet and understanding at drop-off. She offered comfort and kind words. She also reached out to me after pick-up with more kind words and condolences. I 100% recommend Harts Petuary during a hard time like this.”
— Elizabeth Golden
“Vicki and everyone who works here are amazing and take such loving care of your pets. I know they have mine. Max (canine) and Lily (canine) have been laid to rest here and today I get to take our precious Beru (bearded dragon) for his cremation.”
— Brandi Smith
“Losing our 17 year old dog was extremely difficult and Harts was very instrumental in helping us thru the process. I highly recommend them. They were very responsive and sympathetic and pricing was very reasonable esp for meeting with us “off hours.” Thank you Harts for lightening the load in our time of grief. We also appreciated the paw print service.”
