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.

“Nice roads, lots of parking, even had a lot of litter cleanup (lots of bags full) probably for the event last night. Had some kind of cool night gathering going on last night, I’m still wondering what it was?”
— Elyssa Akers
“Very upset with this place. They drive all over my Sons resting place. The workers need to respect and instead of throwing away vases, flowers, Son sign that I had in a vase they need to not make it look messy by driving over. I even planted grass and they threw it away. Don’t understand oh but when your there at first they talk to you like your the President. I really do regret getting this place. It’s only been 5 months so no we do not have a headstone yet so I try to make it nice for my Son but it’s impossible. Very disrespectful.”
— Maria Malagon
“I've had no problems. I have family and a few friends buried here. Some of the older graves in the back look neglected.”
— Katrina Dawn Miller
