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.

“It’s really heartbreaking to see how this church has changed. For years, families from Lauderbach Elementary relied on the church parking lot for safe drop-offs and pickups. It used to feel like a kind and welcoming part of the community. Before picking up my son, I would even go inside to pray it brought me peace and made me feel spiritually connected. Now, not only are we not allowed to park there, but I can’t even go in to pray anymore. That hurts more than anything. Now, we’re being treated like intruders as if we’re criminals just for trying to get our kids to school safely. The traffic outside has become more dangerous, and the stress it causes on both parents and kids is unfair. Isn’t a church supposed to be a place of compassion and support? I truly hope leadership reflects on the values they’re meant to represent because right now, many of us are feeling pushed away instead of embraced. We’re not asking for anything unreasonable — just a little grace and understanding from a place that’s supposed to stand for those very things. Zoom in on the picture you’ll see the man from the church standing there like a guard, as if we’re a threat. It’s sad 😢 that it’s come to this.”
