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
“I want to thank Hannah for her great customer service while we were going through our process of my dad passing. But with her help we were able to feel more at ease of choosing the cremation process. They were fast with the process of paperwork and giving my dad back to us the family. Thank you!”

“My experience with Heartland Cremation was above and beyond any expectations! It was a difficult and very trying time for me. Everyone I came in contact with was very pleasant, professional and attentive. I was contacted by several team members there just to see how my family and I were doing throughout the preparation process. Any questions or concerns I had were answered promptly and taken into careful consideration. Corey was extremely patient with me and my multiple calls ❤️ The day of the memorial Corey's assistant I think her name is Ashley (please forgive me if I'm wrong about her name) but she was also amazing! She was very attentive and kept me on schedule! I have already gave praises to many people about my experience and that they should definitely consider Heartland for future services/arrangements. I also received many compliments on how well the memorial was put together with the presentation including the music, and the picture slide show. I can't thank Heartland Cremation enough for the outstanding service they did for easing my mind during the time of me grieving over the loss of my brother. From the first call I made I knew I had picked and trusted a more than capable and qualified place to handle all arrangements. Thank you to everyone at Heartland Cremation!❤️”
