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
“Mr Haywood and team! Thank you for taking care of my family and I during our difficult time. You all were so professional and compassionate towards us. Your kindness is appreciated, The family of Kelvin Gunter, Sr”
— Chellie Chelle
“The wifi must have dropped or their phone died while live streaming and they lost a portion of my mothers service. Instead of telling us we have been calling back and forth since Nov. we cannot purchase her home going celebration as it is broken into 2 videos. I left several messages and keep getting the run around, to only notice my mom was the only service, that failed to be recorded in its entirety. We have accepted that it is lost and cannot be retrieved, with no confirmation or apology from the funeral home. Aside from updating the “gift/cake” given from funeral home, and having 2 recording devices to ensure a keepsake for families, no other issue.”
— Salyett Brown
