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.

“Had a terrible experience starting from the funeral all the way up to trying to order a headstone. There was one girl that was helpful. They throw away your stuff too that sentimental instead of keeping them and letting people know they have them they just throw it away and since With my situation, The family’s divided I’m the daughter, but my dad’s wife apparently got catered to, she got to make ALL the decisions, wrote the whole obituary and then to top it off , The day of the funeral She got let in first and was seated first while I had to wait at the entrance then once she was seated and picked where she wanted to sit, then they let me and my family in. We don’t agree on the headstone, so therefore ultimately she gets say so even though she doesn’t want to pay to get my father headstone so he won’t be getting one. This place I do not recommend. I’ve read other reviews about here and they say the same exact thing as far as discarding families sentimental things. Doesn’t matter if it’s a rule or not they shouldn’t throw peoples belongings away , I’m very dissatisfied with this place and it’s a DISGRACE to my father That’s buried here.”

“Hillcrest cemetery throws away anything and everything that you leave on your loved ones graves. They claim its their policy but I have been coming to this cemetery for 4 decades and I assure you this was never their policy. They have only been doing it this year and they are very good at removing anything you may leave before the sun even sets. Imagine your job is to collect and throw away any flowers etc you may leave your loved ones. How do you dleep at night? They are no longer here so this is all we have to grieve them and feel connected to them. Maybe you should be informing hearbroken loved ones that this is your policy beforr they choose this as their final resting place. I wish I could move my brothers to somewhere where they aren't just a profit to be made. Shame on whoever decided to enforce this horrible new policy.”
