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.

“After my dad’s passing 14 years ago, my mother wasn't ready to place a marker with her name on it, so I held onto Steve’s original bid until she was ready to be honored alongside him. Steve Gilbert was a "light" for us then and now, providing a beautiful memorial and suggesting some beautiful touches with a very quick turnaround that truly exceeded our expectations. His lasting impact on the families he serves is remarkable, and I cannot recommend his services highly enough. Thank you Riley Gardner Memorial of Austin.”

“Greetings all, I needed to arrange a headstone for my late father, something that was long overdue. Living in California while my father is buried in a small cemetery in Bastrop made the process more challenging than expected. Riley Gardner was not only able to assist, but completed the work nearly two months ahead of the anticipated timeline, which was truly amazing. They were professional, responsive, and patient with all of my questions throughout the process. I can’t give them enough praise and would highly recommend their services.”

“I can’t say enough good things about our experience. From the start, they were compassionate, responsive, and very fair with pricing. Hannah was amazing, she answered all our questions and made the whole process so much easier during a hard time. The finished memorial is absolutely beautiful and honors my mom perfectly.”
