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.

What Families Say
“I lived in Minneapolis for over 19 years but had never been in the Bradshaw Funeral home. I was extremely impressed by the wonderful reception we received from the staff especially Micheal the funeral coordinator. They went above and beyond to help us understand the process of giving my friend’s Dad a proper burial with limited funds. Whether rich or poor their service was the same. They showed kindness and respect for the living as well as the dead. I would recommend their services to all that want to honour their loved ones with care.”
— Bonni Thompsonlo
“My mother passed away and I have never had to coordinate a funeral service. So I decided on Bradshaw because we had my grandmother's funeral there. I did not realize how professional and extremely helpful and supportive everyone at Bradshaw would be. Gianna and Caitlin from the time I came in for the first meeting to internment at the graveyard always made thing's easy and explained everything and genuinely cared for myself and my family. They handled all coordination at Fort Snelling as my mother would be buried with my father which was a big relief. They had wonderful options for the service for flower arrangements, guest books and programs and the urn. Also Gianna lined up a wonderful officiant for the memorial service, Steven was fantastic. The day of the service was handled perfectly and it was truly a beautiful service. They were there for any questions and needs we had and lifted stress from myself and family. You always hope you never needed these services but when people do Brsdshaw funeral home would be the only one I would recommend. Thank you for a respectful and seamless experience.”
