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.

“Although it's been 18 yrs ago, I still remember! From the moment I received the call to proceed with transportation and Funeral arrangements for my Godmother Mrs. Mattie Gillard. I called Mr. Harry Brown and Staff. They were so empathetic to my needs, I wasn't able to leave my job at that moment. The Staff jumped right in and calls were made everything went smooth, no unexpected shock in pricing, No We can't. They were just a breath of fresh air. And MOST of all She looked soooo Beautiful they did a GREAT job on the entire setup. And this I will NEVER forget and I Thank him for making my last memories of her for my Family Unforgettable.
