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.

“I couldn't be more satisfied with any company for these services. We have used other funeral homes before. I was happy with the service until we tried Albertville Memorial. They are my choice from now on. All the staff went out of their way to make it as pleasant as possible and I can't thank them enough.”
— Vickie Stephens
“This place is so odd. 1st of all they couldn’t close the vault and our whole family was waiting almost 20 minutes for them to “seal it” then our family wanted to put the dirt over the vault. THEY CALLED THE POLICE AND HAD OUR FAMILYS VEHICLES PURSUED BY POLICE OFFICERS. After we started using our own shovels they started lowering the dumb gate while there was 10 people emptying the dirt. They didn’t care about the family members. I DO NOT recommend this place whatsoever, and possibly should be sued for the unprofessional tactics they displayed today.”
— Jesse Schaffer
