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.

“Michael not only serviced my husband‘s funeral recently but my mother and dad before that. We did pre-planning for all four of us. He throughly walked us through everything we had to know and decisions that needed to be made. When the time came for each of those I love to go with him, I felt the care. Michael was sensitive to what I was going through and patiently gave me the time to process what was happening. He and his team went above and beyond what I expected. Shout out to his kind wife, Kara! I highly recommend Dewald’s….. even if you do not live in Quarryville, which we do not.”
