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.

“Good UNTIL THEY DID NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT THE REMAINS of my brother and elected to split him up into 2 boxes... RUDE!!! Good Lord, buy some proper size boxes and save people the HORROR of having to sort and rebag them into one vessel... BEYOND INSENSITIVE!!!”
— Marlene Groves
“They did the cremation I requested for a reasonable price. However they where poor at communicating, making me reach out every time for updates. They got the body 9n the 4th with a 9-14 day timeline. I funally found it was done on the 21st when I had to call them to ask again. It started when I called on day 9 just to see, I was told "tomorrow", supprized but glad I sat at home waiting for a call, that never came. The next day I called and was told "in two days for sure" but nothing. I called again to another "tomorrow"..... I understand delays and long scheduling for overly busy services. Just tell me that, obfuscation of the real schedule caused undue dustress by leaving me and the rest of the family spinning over expected completion day. An expectation the representative of the funeral home, while on the phone call I had to make to them, gave us. If the representative was transparent about tineline, insted of filled with excuses and indignation, my family would have had 100% less stress and heartach.”
