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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

What Families Say
“I have paid off my Grandfather's grave stone in April and yet his grave still hasnt been placed down. The lady's in the office keeps saying it "its not on this shipment" but refuses to say when it will be placed. As of right now this is FRAUD!!!”
— Jamie Markley
“Horrible management of property. It used to be pristine when I was a kid then it got bought out and the annuity that kept it going was depleted for profits. My grandmother who passed a year ago still has no grass growing over her grave. I was told it would probably be best to plant my own seed.”
— K W
“Park Hill cemetery ordered and installed a headstone that had the deceased name misspelled. This September will be 2 years and still no corrected spelling. Park Hill representative was told the corrected stone was on a truck and was to be delivered August 19th 2024. Stone was no show and no one knows the status and Park Hill does not provide updates or return calls. My next avenue is with the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. DO NOT DO ANY BUSINESS with Park Hill Cemetery!”
— Dave Moberly
