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 daughter passed away very unexpectedly in May 2025. I had no clue how to plan a funeral or any of the details that entailed with it. The entire staff was extremely accommodating and went above and beyond to educate me, as well and make it as seamless as possible. Trevor, Jenny, and Arnie specifically were wonderful to work with. Trevor went out of his way to have his daughter make a bluey tie for the funeral. I am all about little things, and that is something I will never forget. Jenny went above and beyond to make everything custom and perfect. She also helped me with thank you’s and went out of her way to do things she certainly wasn’t required to do. Arnie was so helpful with the cemetery portion of things and is such a kind soul. I can’t recommend this funeral home enough. In the darkest of times - they made things feel a little less dark. Thank you Trevor and staff - The Harder Family.”

“Trevor and his staff helped me so much during a very difficult time with my husband passing. They were compassionate, respectful and kind. I couldn't have got through it without their help. I highly recommend them to help you with your loved one.”
— Linda Olson
“My brother passed away 5 weeks ago today. I worked with Arnie to have everything set up prior to Jimmy's death. He was so accommodating and helpful. Our family is so grateful for the home, and the Cremation Society of Wisconsin. They treated us with so much respect and genuine concern. They appreciate their customers. We can't thank them enough.”
