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.

“When my mother had passed away a year before,she had set up plans with Washburn- McReavy . My brother Jim had taking care of any other paperwork or questions that needed answering . I believe at that time he had set up his funeral arrangements a d plan . When he became ill I was able to move forward and pay the balance off ,which eased my mind moving forward . When Jim passed ,you were very professional ,quick in reaching out to me ,answering any questions I had and then helping me go through any thing else that needed taking care of . Very good to reach out this week ,to see how I was doing ,and reassuring me that I could send you a message if I needed any help . Thank you !”

“Washburn-McReavy provided excellent service to our family to arrange our mother's viewing, cremation and memorial service. The funeral director and staff were highly professional, capable, responsive, and genuinely empathetic for our family's loss. They provided excellent guidance and follow through on all communication and logistics related to the service, including coordination of services provided by the cemetery and other service providers. I highly recommend them.”
