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.

“I would like to thank Linda and Chino Valley Funeral for making sure my husbands funeral was exceptional. Linda was very personable and caring. She took care of everything for me. The men that picked my husband up took great care of him. Thank you for everything during this very hard time. You are all appreciated. Laurie Olin”

“They made one of my worst times easier. I didn't want the biggest bargain on THIS day, didn't call any others till later (out of curiosity sorry). James made the calls, arranged everything with the VA & got it all done. A beautiful Military goodbye that I doubt would've been handled as perfectly elsewhere. You get what you pay for. It wasn't much more & completely worth it, thank you.”

“WE HAVE USED THIS PLACE MANY TIMES IN THE PAST, AND THEY HAVE BEEN GOOD, BUT THIS TIME, WHEN MY FATHER PASSED AWAY, THE LADY WAS VERY RUDE. I ASKED TO SEE THE URNS THEY HAD FOR SALE. SHE WOULDN'T SHOW THEM TO ME SHE PRETTY MUCH SAID I COULDN'T AFFORD THEM WHEN MONEY WASN'T AN ISSUE BECAUSE IT WAS MY DAD. THEN I ASKED HOW MUCH THE OBITUARIES THEY PUT UP ON THEIR SITE ARE, AND SHE WOULDN'T TELL ME A PRICE. SHE HAS MADE LOSING MY DAD 100 TIMES HARDER, AND I HOPE NO ONE HAS TO GO THROUGH THIS. THEY truly have gone downhill”
