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.

“The staff stepped up and made me feel like someone actually cared . My Pet 🐕 passed away while I was out of town for an extended time. The friends I had pet sitting had no way to get him anywhere to have him cremated. I found out that they was a drop off for pets .I called and asked if there was anyway that they could pick him up?He said absolutely! I was over joyed because he was my wife's pride and joy and she had passed away only 3 months prior. That lifted such a worry off of me. They even offered to deliver him back to my home after he was returned to them! Thank so very much! You went above and beyond to help when you didn't have too!”

“Christin and Tammy have been amazing to us. Our Dad passed then a couple weeks later our Mom. They have explained and answerd any questions we had with all that we asked. They have went way beyond what they were ever required to for us. I never felt rushed in fact I was amazed at the time they have spent with us. I have never felt more like family then a customer in any other business. God has truly blessed us with them.”
