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.

What Families Say
“Rob Taylor and his staff are phenominal. They are all compassionate and treated us like family, which was so important at this emotional moment in our lives. The team made the entire process of handling my mother in law's funeral easy and treated us like we were part of their family. My mother in law was very ill toward the end of her life and the Dusckas Taylor team made her look beautiful. She looked just the way she would have wanted to look when she was laid out. The attention to detail was perfect. The facility itself is beautiful and spacious. We can't say enough about how organized the team was, how easy they made the process and how beautiful the funeral and service at the facility was.”
