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.

“These guys were so nice and helpful during a difficult time for our family. They were very informative and gave us several options. They ever tried to push anything extra on us and we truly were grateful to have chosen them for their services.”
— Heather Hendrix
“They did a wonderful job repairing and resetting my ancestor's monument from the late 1800s which had fallen over. They cleaned it up and made it look great, and now you can read it easier! Prompt, professional service.”
— Lorraine Aldrich
“Very professional and helping people that care about their customers. Ben went out of his way to make sure of what we wanted to order was perfect. He went as far as proposing different idea's that we liked better than what we came up with. Now I understand why my family has dealt with Martin Monument for decades. Highly recommend you talk with them for your needs.”
— Terry Showalter
