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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

“During one of the most difficult times of my life was made a little less difficult due to the staff at Cheshire Family Funeral Home. The empathy, compassion and patience they showed was so thoughtful. From giving me the time needed to make difficult decisions. I wanted my husband's urn to be very personal, I thought I would need to look elsewhere however Chelsea was able to come up with a design that was spot on. Whenever I had a question she was extremely helpful as well as responsive with no waiting. If you want to honor your loved one this place and it's staff will achieve that and more. Thank you all for making a difficult time a bit less stressful.”
