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.

“Zettler Funeral Home has made the funeral arrangements and held the visitation for 2 of my brother's, my dad, and now my mom last week. They have always been very respectful and has stayed right by our families side during the whole time. They made my mom look beautiful and all my family members look like they was just sleeping for which I am truly thankful for. I appreciate all that they have done for my family and would definitely recommend them to anyone.”
— Cindy Glenn
“Picked up my uncle after he passed based on a request from someone not related to him that had no authority to make that decision. Then charged my aunt $250 to have my uncle moved to the funeral home where the family wanted him to go. They never checked with family or asked questions before picking him up.”
— Lynn G
