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.

“A BIG thank you to Redden's. On very short notice, they were able to take care of the arrangements for my loved one. Especially thankful and grateful to Dave. He is truly a professional. Without him, I couldn't have done it. Thank you Dave! The wake and all the arrangements were perfect. Attention to every detail was taken care of. I recommend Redden's. Dave and team are great.”

“After my Grandmothers passing my family & I were very emotional with the preparations and arrangements. In a time where focus is a challenge, Redden stepped up to help us in an outstanding way. Special thanks to Paul and his team members, Dan, and Louie. Our family felt very comfortable coming in from all over the US and PR. Highly recommended for their privacy, elegance, and service. Our goal of treating our family’s matriarch like a Queen/Royalty was far surpassed. Many thanks Redden”

“I cannot thank the people at Redden's Funeral Home enough. They are true professionals, my mother and I did not feel pressured into anything at all. James explained everything to us in a quiet and concise manner, and showed compassion and did not rush us at any point. You go through the worst experience when you lose a loved one, and the stress of planning a funeral can make anyone feel helpless. James, David, and Paul make sure to take that stress off of your back, I would recommend this place to anyone.”
