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 visited this location with my family to celebrate a life that was well lived and had a positive impact on the lives of so many in this area. The family selected this cemetery which has our elder family buried here as the final resting location for another family member. Our family and friends came in with tears and broken hearts. This location presented as a piece of history remembered for many who are in search of national political figures and Confederate history. For our family and friends, we took a few minutes to appreciate our family member, morn her loss, and feel honored that she will be among many other well known names in the history of this area.”

“The grounds are simple and well kept. However. The map provided is only beneficial for the general location. It is a must for them to put row markers on the grounds. My family member is not on the row indicated. Which direction should you count for the graveside left or right? A row to me may not be a row to the cementary. I highly recommend better signage to help family members and friends find their loved ones. Thank you.”

“My great uncle and my great aunt is buried there. My great uncle was 94 . I miss both of them so much .I go there a lot to talk to them. They were some of the best people I know. It has been 2 years since my great uncle passed away and it has been 6 years since my great aunt passed away.”
