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.

“Duiguid Funeral Service far exceeded our expectations. They were compassionate, patient, and great listeners. There was no sales pressure and the did not attempt to up sell us. We deeply appreciate the peerless service they provided us during a challenging time. Thank you all!”

“The staff was absolutely professional and very understanding. My mother passed at home with hospice. When they arrived to take her to the funeral home we were extended the utmost of courtesy to take our time and say our goodbyes. In addition, about an hour after they left, my siblings and I walked into my mom’s room and the team had placed a single white rose on mom’s bed where she passed. We were all so touched we wept as a family. This moment of respect was so very comforting to us. We knew she would be treated with the respect she deserved. Such a wonderful team, I would absolutely recommend them to everyone going through the process of saying goodbye to your loved one!”
