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
“The Chattanooga National Cemetery is such a beautiful place. It is open to all who served this country and were honourable discharged and their spouses. Graveside services are limited to 15 minutes and done at one of two pavilions.”
— Richard Moon
“What a humbling experience with stunning views. We were in town for a funeral held at this cemetery. The grounds and views of the city from this cemetery are breathtaking! We are huge military history buffs and knew this was one grave we must visit to pay our respects. Desmond Doss. P3399 TOP OF THE HILL ACROSS THE ROAD ON LEFT”
— Kelly R
“Stop by to pay honor to all these people who fought for our country. Some of the ones that most people will recognize are the men of Andrews Raiders who Disney made a move about "The Great Locomotive Chase" and Desmond Doss whos story was told in the move "Hacksaw Ridge." To bad everyone story could not be told in some form like this.”
— Jason Armstrong
