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.

“Lindsey helped with my mother's funeral service years ago at Crestview in Portland, last couple of weeks she helped with my mother in love service at Cole and Garrett in Goodletsville, TN. She was excellent in helping us plan the service. From the time we walked in till after the burrial service, Lindsey and her team was Top Notch.”
— Rhonda Douglas
“Days before my father’s expected death, I spoke with Lindsey to see if our years before purchased plots and funeral services were in place. Years old arrangements so she had to locate our information. She answered the questions I had at the time. Once we were in need of Cole and Garrett’s services, words do not adequately express how kind and gentle she was with us. I called her my Angel Baby. We mostly knew what we wanted as a family. She said yes at every thought and action we had. I would ask her what we were to do next. She told me what to do. She led and we followed. The sweetest simple graveside service and burial. Exactly what we wanted to honor my father. My deepest appreciation of Cole and Garrett and their care for my family.”
