Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

What Families Say
“We showed up without an appointment and Keeton stopped what he was doing to make time for us and answer all our questions. We purchased a casket and vault and learned that when the vault is not purchased through funeral home, the vault company must set it. I was a little uneasy since I know how mistakes can be made when so many different people involved, but I explained my feelings and Keeton made sure to call me and kept me updated. The casket was delivered to funerL home on time and the vault was in place on day of service. He made the process easy and I would highly recommend. Also, the casket we purchased for our mother was absolutely beautiful and less expensive than purchasing direct from funeral home. Thanks to Keeton and entire team at Caskets and More.”

“Ok so I ordered a casket and bought it ,and it was good but, then I ordered a headstone for my sons grave in Nov.2021. and paid up front it has been 9 months and still no headstone they keep telling me that it's coming, now all of the sudden they claim they delivered it no one contacted me and I am still waiting not happy now it's been 10 months he at first tried to say that they delivered it months ago but, they never even called the funeral home to approve the headstone ,never sent me a blue print or a picture of the stone like I was told back in Nov.of 2021, so the whole time he was giving me the run around . How is that a way to run a business especially when I'm still greiving over my son . And then I was put through all of this. So I called him again and he said he was going to go pick the headstone up around 11 or 12 that day . and that he'd send me a picture the next morning and so I called him around 1:00 and he said he would give me my money back. Because they didn't have a picture of it .so I got my money back but have no headstone for son . I should have been compensated for all the greiving and missery That I've had to endure over the lies and deceit .”

“No. Slimy creep shouts false excuses frantically by phone when asked about unreasonable delay in cremation. Hard to get ahold of somewhere in the back with remains: he said he wasn't done with the autopsy (not true and not even his business); he refused to return the remains, despite multiple requests. Deceptive, possessive, disrespectful. Eew. Just No.”
