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.

“Today a 3 year old Facebook memory popped up about my Mom's funeral receiving at Drum Funeral Home. Looking at these photos reminded me of what a beautiful job the folks at Drum did for my mom and the whole family during this trying time. Drum was also there for our family when my father died over 20 years ago too. I don't know exactly how long Drum has been in business in Conover, NC but I know it's been a very, very long time. I know from experience why - their great, caring service. Thank you Drum Funeral Home.”
