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.

“No one wants to need a funeral home. Tim and Jayne walked us through every step, personalized the experience and made all the difference. Huge loss and great memories. I'm forever thankful and wholeheartedly recommend their services.”

“Tim the funeral director is extremely efficient and responds immediately to phone calls and emails. As a Massachusetts funeral home, we recently hired him again to transition one of our clients living in Maine to her burial place in Massachusetts. Everything was done with timely respect and dignity. This is the second time our firm has used him for this purpose.”
— Adam Auclair
