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 want to give a special thank you to Pastor Mike, who gave a wonderful eulogy and fellowshipped with our family after the service. I am truly blessed to have connected with them all.

“I helped a friend plan for her husband's final goodbye this week. We were told to ask for Whitney by another friend. She was very friendly, professional, knowledgeable and most of all kind. Everything ran smoothly. My family has always used McKneely for final needs and we have never been disappointed. They will continue as this family's funeral home. Thank you again Whitney for all your time and patience!”
