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 cannot say enough good things about Williams Memorial Services, and Mr. Seon Williams. Mr. Williams put me immediately at ease, and helped and guided me through every step of this very difficult process for which I was not at all prepared and had no experience. They are professional, compassionate, and made me feel proud of how my husband was presented and represented. Five-star service is an understatement. I will be eternally grateful to Williams Memorial Services for everything they did to help me, and our family, through a very difficult time. I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you, Williams Memorial Services.”
