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.

“Every aspect of our experience was top- notch. The compassion and care was outstanding. They made everything so easy for our family and drove 5 hours to Scranton PA to bring mother back to be buried with Dad. They went over everything with us and left no detail unattended. Funeral home was spotless and flowers arranged perfectly. Thanks to all the Nieds and all the wonderful employees for handling Moms viewing and funeral!”
— Joe Langan
“The Nied family is one of the kindest, most caring and compassionate groups of people I have ever known. Services are always professional with that personal touch. The entire staff makes an impossibly difficult period as stress-free and positive as it can be. Truly wonderful people.”
