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.

“John Ferguson made me feel at ease immediately. He understood my grief and confusion at the loss of my wife and carefully guided me through a most difficult day. Every detail was covered, ever form filled out, and all with a caring hand. After going through this, I now consider John a new friend.”

“Regarding my Mother: We used Baldwin Brothers for My Mother's cremation. When we picked up her ashes the woman did a reading in memory of my mother. She was dressed professionally and she handled the difficult experience with care. Regarding my Brother: Our initial meeting was well done. However when we picked my brothers ashes it was a different experience. Very cut and dry, "here are the papers, here are the ashes". No reading, and not at all what we expected. Also, although we don't expect the staff to wear a suit and tie, the casual dress seemed less professional.”

“I attended a Baldwin Brothers informational luncheon to learn about prepaid cremation. Steven Metzger convinced me that Baldwin Brothers was the right choice. The enrollment process was quick, and now my family and I have added peace of mind.”
