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.

“I cannot say enough about the incredible service we received from Dunn & Sons Funeral Home. From start to finish, they were super accommodating, personable, and genuinely caring. Everyone we encountered was kind, friendly, and made us feel like family, truly as if we had known each other for years. Their pricing for the wake, funeral, and cremation was not only very reasonable, but the value of their service and support was priceless. They provided all the right resources at the right time, which made a very difficult process so much easier to navigate. Mrs. Dunn was so sweet and kind, going above and beyond to make sure the service was amazing and memorable. Her daughter, Brianna, was not only beautiful inside and out, but also funny, friendly, and warm. Together, they treated us with a level of compassion and care that exceeded all expectations. The Dunn family also offered the use of their dining hall, set it up beautifully, and even had their family members there to serve us and ensure every need was met. The Dunn sons, who were as respectful and helpful as they were handsome, went out of their way to assist us and make sure everything ran smoothly. I wholeheartedly recommend Dunn & Sons Funeral Home to anyone in need of funeral services. Their combination of professionalism, compassion, and fair pricing makes them a true blessing during one of life’s hardest moments. Thank you!”

“Dunn and Son Funeral Home has to be the number 1 Funeral Home in Washington DC. My family and I just had my mom’s funeral Service at our church this past Monday 10/27/25. The Team at Dunn and Son did a FANTASTIC JOB with the whole Funeral. If you live in the District of Columbia and have a hard time finding a funeral home to give your love one the BEST going home ceremony, Dunn and Son is the company to go with, and they REALLY, REALLY, CARE about their client(s). They treat you like family.”
