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.

“Our father passed away on July 7th 2024. Pilar funeral home took care of everything. This is our first time choosing the funeral of a loved one and this place made it practical and easy. Although we quickly shopped other funeral homes, this home made the most financial sense. All associates made this experience much more bearable, everyone was kind and sensitive. All of my siblings liked the attention to detail displayed throughout the event. I cannot say enough about how we were treated, if i could give them 10 stars i would, it was that great. Thank you Marisol, Blanca, Virginia, and anyone else that helped us out, we are grateful for all of your services!”
