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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

“We would like to thank Trice Funeral Home on behalf of my family for the beautiful funeral service for my mother. Mr. Trice, Tiffany, and the staff were very compassionate and warm to family and friends and were informative and professional from the beginning. They were very patient and attentive to all our questions. The team was always available by phone and/or email. They were attentive and very detailed to our needs and wishes, ensuring the service was the best for my mother. Everything was handled with care, dignity, and respect for the service. They even surprised us with a beautiful plaque in honor of our mother. We are truly grateful to Mr. Trice, Tiffany, and the entire staff for their support during this difficult time. From The Greene Family.”

“Mr Trice, Miss Janette, Mr Brian, Mr Larry, the cosmetologist... The numerous ppl that walked with us at Trice we will always remember your kindness and leading the way when we didn't know how to walk this pathway. From the moment we arrived ( with no appointment) they were there not just for us, but with us. The design on the funeral program and memorial poster they chose told me that they knew Laurel...despite never meeting her. Thank you for everything including the personal words of advice and and compassion shown towards my grandson in the loss of his mother, and my son in the loss of his wife. Trust that when they say they will be there every step of the way, they are.”
