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.

“A close friend of mine recently passed away, and this funeral home decided it was appropriate to cremate him without informing his next of kin, who is his husband. My friends, family, and I reached out for information, only to discover that a family member with only a medical power of attorney had arranged for the cremation. No one was invited to this process, and the funeral home failed to contact his next of kin. This young lady took her uncle's body and never informed anyone. I, along with other friends, contacted this funeral home, only to be given the runaround. I strongly recommend doing your research and reading other reviews, as this is not how business should be conducted.”

“My stepfather was military and did not get the proper send off. The funeral home stated they didn’t know he was military but they made the program and knew where he was being buried. We were told they would get us a flag. That’s not the same as the proper send off. Highly disappointed and I would not recommend this place to anyone.”
— Mark Jackson
“Greenville location. Great staff. Professional and kind. Thank you for your great service during our time of bereavement. Special thanks to Pastor Charvis Gray and Maxie Bruton. Maxie, you have a singing voice from heaven.”
— Rosa Jones
