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.

“My experience with the Neptune staff was very easy, relaxed, and comforting. What a great feeling knowing I have all the arrangements made for my final end of life plans. They were affordable, and inclusive in each activity required. I would encourage anyone who hasn't planned ahead, seriously think about it. One never knows when they'll need their services. Thank-you Neptune!”

“My father purchased a plan 6 or 7 years ago. We thaught every thing sounded great as the plans were discussed with us. The price seemed really reasonable. As life goes my father passed recently due to complications at a hospital in Fort Smith Arkansas. One call to Neptune and as we crossed our fingers Neptune performed with speed and efficiency. No problems whatso ever. My mother in law purchased a plan a couple years ago. Based on our recent experience we have no worries.”

“Highly and truly reccomend! Corey Starr of the local Nebraska chapter of Neptune Society was very reliable. He is a one-person operation, making his efforts even more appreciative. He was very responsive - even outside of business hours. Our family lost a loved one after a terribly turbulent and unexpected health issue, no end-of-life plans in place, and minimal funds. To make it more complicated, we needed to get remains sent from Nebraska to New Jersey. We made the difficult decision to cremate rather than transport the body, and then were quoted $6,000 by the funeral home and crematory, before learning about Neptune Society's flat pricing at $2,249. Neptune's service and cost was truly game-changing for us and made it possible to fulfill the last wish of our loved one. Thank you to Corey Starr and Neptune Society!”
