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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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
“We had a family member unexpectedly pass. Tony was so patient helping us look up information and filled out all the forms on his computer. The price was the most reasonable in town and Rosie was so helpful with getting us an appointment and quoting us over the phone quickly. They even filed the paperwork with the VA and got us a flag even though we couldn’t find the discharge papers ourselves. They made this hard process very easy and I highly recommend them.”
— Brad Williams
“Bad location in tweaker investment streets, staff is terrible they seem to not care or be completely rude , there payment system sucks and crshed on us and made us wait 2 hours and then also almost double charged us on our fees , we had some dude named Jonny he seems cool but even something seemed off also when they split my brothers ashes they did a rush pour job and had ash on the box terrible people trying feed off misfortune of others”
