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 want to sincerely thank you for the compassionate and professional service you provided during such a difficult time. Every detail was handled with care and dignity, and it brought great comfort to our family. Your team went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, and we are truly grateful for the support and respect shown throughout the entire process. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to Fuller-Sheffield and especially to Ashley Edmond for the incredible care and professionalism shown during the service for my mom Melinda Plummer from the moment we walked through your doors, we felt supported and understood.”
— Amy Brooks
“When our nephew passed away unexpectedly without insurance, our family was devastated and lost. The thought of the funeral costs was overwhelming. Upon visiting the funeral home, we were met with exorbitant prices and a lack of cooperation. Someone recommended Fuller-Sheffield, so we immediately went there. From the moment we entered, we were treated with love, compassion, and respect. Ashley, in particular, was exceptional. She listened attentively to our concerns and guided us through every aspect of the process, patiently answering our numerous questions. Despite the emotional toll of the day, Ashley remained by my side, offering unwavering support and kindness. Our family is eternally grateful to Ashley and her staff for their exceptional service.”
— Marissa Mireles
“Clarissa was extremely helpful when I called her to make a preplanned arrangement for my daughter. She was efficient and returned my calls in a timely manner. She quickly made the plan just like my plan I had already purchased.”
— Earleen
