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.

“We had a great experience with Simplicity’s Ladson office. Prior to our loved one death their team answered all our questions and concerns. The removal team was caring and treated my father with respect. Brandi was an exceptional director, she communicated with us every step of the way and treated us with the same care and compassion when our mother passed away. We will always choose Simplicity in our time of need.”

“Simplicity Locountry Cremation and Burial came highly recommended. Rose and all the staff went above and beyond to make sure myself and the family felt at ease and all they did about explaining what to expect and all details to where we were we understand everything. The complementary Flag was awesome. Thank you all .I would recommend Simplicity to anyone. Arlene Langenstein.”

“We used Simplicity in Ladson. Riley and his team are kind, caring, soft spoken, calm, and patient. They willingly answered questions. They assisted me with filling out the paperwork and repeated information when needed. They returned my calls efficiently. They were so helpful in through the cremation and preparation for burial of my father and stepmother. I did accidentally call the North Charleston location one day and based on my phone interaction, the North Charleston office does not seem to have the compassion and caring nature of the Ladson office. I highly recommend Riley and his Ladson team.”
