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.

“From the moment our family walked through the doors of Max A. Sass & Sons, we felt an immediate and overwhelming sense of care, compassion, and genuine respect. The team handled every detail of my mother’s service with a level of thoughtfulness that went far beyond our expectations. They took the time to listen, to learn who she was, and to ensure her memory was honored in the most meaningful and heartfelt way. Their kindness never felt rushed or routine. They treated us as though we were their own family, gently guiding us through each step during an incredibly difficult time. Every question was met with patience, every request with understanding, and every moment with grace. It was clear that their work is more than a profession; it is a true calling. They went out of their way in countless ways to ease the burden on our family. From the beautifully arranged service to the quiet reassurances offered along the way, they created a space where we could grieve, remember, and celebrate my mother’s life with peace and dignity. I will forever be grateful for the comfort and support they provided. We could not have asked for a more compassionate or caring team to walk beside us.”
