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.

“My daughter recently passed away and Jerry and Lynda were amazing. Lynda was so compassionate and always available to answer questions and guide us. We had her visitation and service at the funeral home and it was beautiful. She is buried in our private family cemetery which Jerry helped to facilitate. We were very pleased with our experience with Jerry Hartley Funeral Home.”

“Mr Hartley and Lynda were truly amazing to work with! I had no experience planning a funeral or service and they worked with us through every step of the way to make the process as pain free as possible! Hartley funeral home is more than just a funeral home! Also, their price beat everyone else that we contacted! | highly recommend!!”

“My husband recently passed. It has been extremely difficult for me. The staff at Jerry Hartley were all very kind and welcoming. The visitation was set up beautifully. My husband did look very good. The funeral home took us to Fort Jackson for his funeral service and burial, all of which was done exceptionally well. Very happy with the service Jerry Hartley gave us all.”
