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.

“While the cemetery remains mostly well maintained, we have not yet gotten a headstone and all markers to identify my grandfather’s plot are continuously removed. Raised or flat. It’s very frustrating when you go to visit your loved one and don’t really have a clue where they are.”

“Workers are disrespectful--You try and keep something nice on your loved ones marker and grave and keep it out of the way of the landscaping and they still come along and tear it up!! Also they should turn their mowers so it want blow all over the markers! I have put so much nice stuff on my loved ones grave and it has been torn up by the workers!!!!! They need to get rid of some of all those dead trees that is in the cemetery!!!!!”

“Several of my family members are buried here and I went out today to clean my Grandpa Ernest Neal's plaque. There were office workers there and I proceeded to get out with a pump sprayer of water along with dishwashing liquid and tooth brush. His plot is on the back row and not in view of the office. So when they saw me get out with those items I was shocked to see them come out and purposely move their vehicles closer and watched me as I was grieving for my Grandpa as I clean his plaque. Didn't know it was gonna be that big of a deal to try and brighten the plaque my Grandma paid for years ago. Very bothered by this and that's why I'm definitely not going to be interred there!”
