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.

“From the time you enter the gorgeous funeral home (that doesn’t look anything like a funeral home) to the immaculate property grounds, you are surrounded by such a peaceful environment. I simply cannot express how grateful we are to Sunset Memorial Park for not only handling our father with the utmost dignity and respect, but handling us with care and concern the whole way through. They helped us plan every detail, even adding some detail after planning that really blew us away, like the Air Force patch inside the upper part of the casket. My dad’s service was so beautiful, I know he would have been so proud, especially of those military honors. Robert, Andrew & the entire staff took so much off of our shoulders and for that I am eternally grateful. God bless you for all for gently walking those of us who mourn, through arguably, some of hardest decisions and moments of our lives.”
— Anitra Hitchcock

— Amelia Whitaker
“Robert and his team were incredibly sensitive and accommodating throughout their time in helping us. What a blessing to have such understanding and care at the time of our father's passing!”
— Manny Venegas
