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 selected this funeral home based on its close proximity to my mother's Buddhist temple. The entire team was exceptional right from the beginning, and I am grateful for choosing their services. Glen Carellengo, the funeral director, was a tremendous source of support during a deeply stressful time. From our first conversation, he immediately put me at ease and helped me navigate the complexities of planning a Buddhist funeral, sharing valuable insights based on his previous experiences. I was extremely overwhelmed by the extensive list of tasks, but his professionalism and kindness made a significant difference. On the day of the service, he went above and beyond when one of our chosen caterers was closed, he personally picked up the lunch the day before and had everything perfectly ready for the funeral. His incredible attention to detail and unwavering support were invaluable, and I remain incredibly grateful for his assistance during a difficult period. I interacted with Carmen next. She was the first person to greet me at the funeral home, and her demeanor was welcoming and supportive. She consistently responded quickly to any questions, both in person and via email. When I was in a time crunch regarding logistical matters, she helped escalate the process to get my mother's death certificate on time by following up with several different people. The last person that I interacted with was Alexis, who provided post-funeral guidance and helped me explore options for pre-planning my own funeral. I'm so thankful for the wonderful team at Blount & Curry; their amazing help and compassion made this difficult time bearable.”

“Exactly what one would expect from a funeral home.Professional, knowledgeable, expedited service. What I wasn't expecting was the "car dealer" sales pressure in making funeral arrangements for the entire family after my father had just recently passed and despite me telling them now was not the time”
