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.

What Families Say
“Our experience with Hiers-Baxley funeral services was very professional. The staff were very nice. They made me feel really good. I appreciated it when they brought my mother to the car and seat belted her urn in the backseat. That meant a lot to us that she was safe in the car for her trip to her resting place. I would recommend this funeral home to everyone. We had a great experience with the staff. If you can have a great experience at a funeral home that is.”
