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.
“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.

What Families Say
“Not only does this business treat its clients poorly, but also guests that are invited by the clients. Head owner and primary assistant have been explicit about their hostility and unprofessionalism towards attendees and musicians that are invited to the funeral services on the client’s behalf. Preserve your relationship with your friends and family during a season of loss and do not book here despite the low price tag. Your guests’ dignity will be left at the door.”
— Jacob Contador
“Body’s being exposed while being there deciding if it’s the funeral home no respect to the dead. They have no sympathy for the family and their “deals” get turned on you last minute. They tell you to go at a certain time and they move it around. ABSOLUTELY SUCKS. Not the best experience for grieving. They don’t even give you privacy. And when you ask for a simple pass by in a neighborhood that’s in route to the cemetery you are denied. They absolutely are horrendous. DONT GET THEIR SERVICE.”
— Nazareth Bernal
“Worst Funeral Home ever. No respect.No service. Rude. Door open that you can see EVERYTHING. Dust up on the ceiling. Spider webs and Cob webs. Literally they don’t respect. Always up in your business. No privacy. Broken restrooms. Sketchy building even till the workers are sketchy.BAD SERVICE!!!!!”
