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.

“I cannot express enough gratitude for the compassionate and professional service Anna provided during such a difficult time. From the very beginning, she guided us with patience, warmth, and genuine care. Every detail was handled thoughtfully, and she went above and beyond to make sure our family felt supported and comforted. Anna’s attention to detail, her calming presence, and her ability to anticipate our needs made the entire process so much easier. She honored our loved one’s memory with dignity and grace, and created a beautiful service that we will always cherish. It is rare to meet someone who combines professionalism with such heartfelt compassion. Anna truly turned a painful moment into a meaningful celebration of life. I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of support during a loss.”

“Everyone has been kind, attentive and professional at Greenwood. Working with Andre Mejia has been such a blessing in this stressful time. My mother is 82 years old and he answered all of her questions thoroughly with dignity, patience and respect. We were able to lay the ashes of both my father and my brother to rest in a beautiful space in the maloseum. In a time when emotions are high and hearts are heavy, I completely trust the staff at Greenwood to be there with their expertise to make everything go smoothly.”

“⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ I recently worked with Adrian at Greenwood Mortuary to set up the marker/plate for a family friend, and I am extremely grateful for his help. From the very beginning, Adrian was kind, patient, and professional. He took the time to explain each step, answer all of my questions, and made sure every detail was correct. This was an emotional process, but Adrian’s compassion and guidance made it much easier. He was respectful, understanding, and truly seemed to care about honoring my family friend’s memory. The final marker/plate looks beautiful and is exactly what we hoped for. Thank you, Adrian, for your support and excellent service. I highly recommend him and Greenwood Mortuary.”
