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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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
“Prepaid funeral for grandmother suddenly had additional costs. This happened almost two years ago and I still think about it. Way to take total advantage of the grieving. The FTC regulates funeral homes, they have to provide you with a price list before you look at caskets and the like. You do NOT have to choose a package deal or anything else they put at you. You are fully allowed and supported by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to pick and choose the goods and services you want. I am taking Elder Law currently and had no idea about the Funeral Rule- educate yourself before making a decision based on grief and bullying tactics.”

The hospitality, respect, integrity, patience, generosity, kindness, just overall greatness of this team and place has got to be unmatched by anyone around. Marc, I can’t thank you and your team enough for everything you have done.”
