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
“I contacted them months in advance. They provided me with an estimate to which they adhered exactly. I called a couple of weeks before the death just to confirm and they addressed my concerns respectfully and accurately. They arrived at my home within a half hour of being contacted. Two gentlemen came in, they were extremely sympathetic, respectful, and deferential. They told us everything they were going to do before they did it and offered us options about the procedure. I spoke with a close friend about their experience with a cremation though a funeral home. They had to sit with a funeral director for over an hour as he tried to sell them services. They bought a $400 urn; I took the included container. The only other difference is that their loved one was removed from a facility and mine from home. They spent over three times as much as I did. Some may find it tacky to shop for funeral services, but my wife would have been pleased.”

“From start to finish Margaret and her team were so supportive, I truly do not know how I would have survived with arrangements for my husband. They’re reasonably priced, have ample parking, opened a room for the more than expected people who showed up for my family. I highly recommend them for one of the most difficult moments in life.”
— Veronica Treston
“New Leaf was VERY responsive from the very beginning. They were compassionate and professional every step of the way. Thank you for making a challenging time easy for us.”
— Andrea Barnhill
