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.

What Families Say
“Chavez Funeral and Cremation Services provided exceptional care during one of the most difficult times for our family. Sonia was incredibly kind, professional, and patient throughout the entire process. I never once felt rushed or overlooked, and she took the time to answer every question with compassion and clarity, no matter when I asked. Most importantly, the care and respect shown toward my loved one meant more to us than words can express. I’m truly grateful for the support and dignity they provided our family.”
— Cheri Villarreal
“My father’s passing was unexpected, and navigating grief while trying to plan a funeral was incredibly overwhelming. After reaching out to several places, Chavez Funeral Home stood out. They answered all of my questions and provided an economical option without any judgment. In the beginning, Sonia was incredibly responsive and helpful. As time went on, it became a bit harder to get in touch with her, likely due to her busy schedule—but even then, she always responded with patience and compassion, and she made sure all of my concerns were addressed. The day of the service went smoothly, and it turned out to be a truly beautiful and heartfelt tribute to my father. I am extremely grateful for the support and care they provided in honoring his memory, and for the respect and kindness they showed to our family during such a difficult time. Thank you Sonia and Chavez Funeral Home.”
