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.
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
“Pegues was amazing in every single way. From the beginning they walked us through the process step-by-step helping us and answering any and all questions we had. Pegues took great care of my husband and treated him with such respect that I will always be indebted. Before, during, and after the services they were so amazing, personal and professional. Everyone was there working so hard to make sure the services went smooth so that me, my kids and my family didn’t have to worry or think about one thing. We could be present for my husband and celebrate his life. Pegues made it stress-free, worry-free and made a horrible circumstance seem easier to bear. A few days after the funeral they checked in on my family, just to see how we were doing and offer us a helpful resource for a step-by-step plan for what to expect after the funeral. They will always have my full respect and love.”
