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.

“Very drivable. Access is to the side of the cemetery, not from the highway. Historical but mostly granite monuments. Some lovely staruary and the mausoleums have gorgeous stained glass windows.”
— Dusti Morton
“The cemetery itself it very neat & they keep the tombstones very nice. It's very nice and secluded too in a way to allow for privacy when visiting.”
— Jennifer Arevalo
“My husband's parents and other family members are buried here, so we visit often. Despite the busy road nearby, it is a nice place to remember loved ones. The grounds are well-kept and there are trash cans located throughout the area. The wind harp is a beautiful addition to this old cemetery, and is located in a beautifully landscaped and quiet part of the grounds.”
— Carolyn Rozmarynowski
We file the life insurance claim and recover unclaimed property — the payout can help cover costs like these. $0 upfront.
