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.

“I had a calm professional experience with the initial phone call of inquiry of how to proceed thru the ins and outs of pre planning. Once I signed on for their services I felt confident in my decision. There was no pressure whatsoever. Once we needed their final services it was all accomplished smoothly. They have reached out to me with phone calls to give their condolences and to see how I was doing. I highly recommend them. You will not be disappointed.”
