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
“Everly-Wheatley is a beautiful funeral home. They put everyone at ease, and they make sure the families are taken care of. Everything is very professional and straightforward. Their is ample parking, plenty of pews in the viewing rooms, bathrooms, and a small front desk. They even offered to take pictures for our family, so all members could be in the picture. It's a pretty easy place to find.”
— Allison Seaton
“Thank you very much for the excellent attention to every detail surrounding our Sister's passing. You all were very kind, respectful, and professional. You made me feel supported, comfortable and able to concentrate on the issues at hand…. I appreciated the time you gave me to discuss options presented to to me as they aligned with what she wanted for her final arrangements. I mostly appreciated that you followed through with everything I asked (including the picture of her Urn with the inscription). You worked so hard to stay connected with the Cemetary. I even had an issue uploading pictures to her Memorial page you made, and you were so kind to walk me through it and there were no delays with the posting of these precious memories. I highly recommend you all, Jim & Brian, and all the staff. Of course, I already knew you were good as we buried our Mom and Brother through your wonderful, caring Company. February 2024 -Julia (Harris) Dodson”
