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
“My journey with Mundwiler funeral home started a few years ago in prearranging my mom’s end of life needs with Kaylee. She displayed care while being exceedingly detailed and thorough including out of area cremation, memorial service wishes and interment. When mom passed recently all I had to do was make a simple phone call and I was assured all the plans would be set in motion. As promised, the Mundwiler family delivered on all my mom’s wishes providing peace to my family during a challenging time. The level of communication was excellent throughout via phone, zoom, email and text. Tana, Kaylee, Amber & Tim Mundwiler personally directed mom’s service. Tana was my main contact for the service and she assured that the vision I had in mind was fully materialized. Tana procured beautiful potted mums to adorn our table of memories. Amber and Kaylee masterfully oversaw the execution of turning Minnesota meat & cheese trays into a grand charcuterie board for our luncheon. The Mundwiler family exceeded all expectations and cared for us as if we were family. Thank you!”
