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.

“My new-born baby just passed away. I was looking for a cemetery near me, and this one caught my attention. I liked that it has deer and ducks, and you can see a lot of squirrels running around. I like that there are plenty of trees around, and it just feels so peaceful. Pam and the staff were so helpful.”

“08.09.22: This is one of the best places to go to in Salt Lake City when it isn’t too hot. Peaceful & serene. Staff respects all visitors. I have never felt unwelcome or unwanted here. There are times when I come here for comfort. There have been times that I come here to lament my own life’s choices. I always respect & appreciate the lives that were lived & the lives you & I are living now. Convenient & tasteful receptacles located throughout Mount Olivet Cemetery to discard any trash or debris. I love this place.”

“A beautiful, meditative place. It’s so large I found it great for a walk. I look forward to spending more time here. There was so many deer! They were beautiful. When I was driving out, I noticed a family was holding a service down the way and a bunch of the deer crossed the road towards them. I know they were attracted to the flowers but, it was a very beautiful thing to see them gently walking towards a family almost like a little flock of angels. There was very little trash I saw and garbage cans spaced well enough to pocket the trash you do see to drop it off. I’m very happy that Utah has a nice cemetery to stroll through, clear your head and pay respects to the city.”
