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.

“Paul did a wonderful job with coordinating and helping us find a Pastor who truly took the time to meet with the family and get to know us and my dad, Keith Simons. Huber provided a beautiful service. He was compassionate, caring and helpful. The wishes at the church my dad attended couldn't accommodate family schedules so we were in need of help. Beautiful service and so very very loving. I am grateful. Thank you!”

“Paul Huber and I are life-long friends from Minnetonka High School days. He was our family's only choice to handle our parents services. Losing loved ones is never easy so having someone who cares and has great character was very assuring those two times in our life. Paul (and his staff) did an outstanding job with both my Dad and Mom's funeral/celebration services. From start to finish, Paul was kind, comforting, very available and highly attentive. Over the years, I've attended many services at their chapels. I highly recommend them. Paul is a consummate professional. No one better!”

“Compassion and care for our family during the difficult time was so appreciated. Chad, Susan and Andy were so kind and helpful it made the process a little less painful. Chad was always available if we needed something, he even came to my house to pick up items and drop off paperwork. Susan was so helpful during the viewing and took care of all the details of that evening. Andy was so caring and compassionate to our family. My granddaughter was concerned that her Great Grandpa would get cold during the night before the funeral service and Susan assured her she would tuck him in and take good care of him. We all cried that Susan would be so kind and my granddaughter says she will always remember Susan and the love she showed toward us. Thank you all again.”
