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.

“Huge thank you to Lisa and her team. We had services over the weekend for my grandfather and every display was better than the next. I asked them to incorporate his favorite 49ers hat and a cigar box (I provided both) to the display I purchased and I couldn’t be happier or more appreciative with how perfectly they executed. Thank you guys so much!”

“This was my 1st for a funeral arrangement. The flowers were even more beautiful than I expected! I called the day before the funeral to make sure they could fulfill the order in time, which they did! I would definitely order here again. Sorry I didn’t take a picture.”

“It was a breeze to order. I ordered the Flowers and Fruit Basket. It was delivered on time. My son and DIL said the flowers were fresh and beautiful. The fruit was exceptional. I couldn't have been more pleased. I would highly recommend Fruits and Flowers. Great product. Well worth the price.”
