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.

“My wife and I live states away from our daughter, when she suddenly passed away. We searched for a Funeral Home to help us and called Steel & Wolfe. Ernie answered our call and was amazing. He took care of everything through phone calls and text messages. When we arrived, Ernie was waiting for us. He had taked care of all the arrangements so we could focus on our daughter.”

“Our family experience here was very poor . Steel and Wolfe somehow messed up the Obituary Time Date and location so this caused much added unwelcome confusion amongst the family. The young man they sent to be the door greater was a mute never said a word to anyone or gave them any info about signing the book etc.. They offered a nice gesture and sent over 8ish bottles of their own water with their label on them and a handful of hard tack candy like i said nice gesture but we had over 50 people attending so i ended up simply just hiding the waters and candys since everyone wasn't welcome to have their own. Ended up being charged for a Veterans Flag even though they are free from Arlington National Cemetery to Veterans when they pass away. Also took over a month to receive death certificates. The guys who work here have great attitudes and seem like truly good people it just seemed that in our case the Very Important details fell straight through the cracks and as we all can agree in a time of emotional turmoil everything needs to be perfect perfect”
