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 really want to thank the assistance of Carrie and Ashley towards us during this difficult time. We just did the funeral service for my mother-in-law here and couldn't be more grateful. We had a confusing time and even mixed funeral home to which we had done the contract and they did all we needed to transfer the service here and could not be more grateful. Our family member looked very natural and beautiful, we had a beautiful service. Thank you!!!”

“For an experience that no one wants to go through but we all have to go through I want to give my upmost appreciation for a job well done. From sitting down with the first account manager for planning out the service to the execution of the service it was a very pleasant and coordinated experience. The staff was very compassionate and made the experience as unobtrusive as possible. This is the second time in five years that we have lost someone and have used Baldwin Fairchild and the Altamonte Springs location in particular and would do so again.”

“We celebrated the life of my Nanny (grandma) here today and it was a very beautiful service. The building was nice. They played a slideshow of pictures we provided and had food, meatballs and cheeses, fruits and vegetables. It was hard to say goodbye but we appreciate having such a nice and welcoming place for everyone to do it. The flowers around the urn were beautiful. This is a big enough venue for a small or large gathering and either would be fine. If you are looking for a place for a service or remembrance, I would recommend this place. We appreciate everything. Thank you ❤️ we displayed Nanny and Papa's wedding pic and my uncle Glenn who died when he was 13. Nanny had been asking about him the week she passed. We like to think she joined him in heaven. Saying goodbye is never easy, but it was nice to have it here. Thanks for reading and if you are looking at this review and in need of a place like we were, I am sorry for your loss and hope you find the peace you need to get through the hard times. We all have the good times in our hearts ❤️❤️❤️”
