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.

“I DO NOT RECOMMEND USING THIS FUNERAL HOME. They are unprofessional, insensitive, & misleading. A few days before my grandmothers service my family picked out a plot and they told us the plot would be dug up for the service. The plot was paid for. The day of the service, when my grandmothers family and friends arrived to the grave site, the plot was not dug up & we were not informed it was not dug up. Williams Funeral Home told us we needed to leave the grave site to allow the plot to be dug up (when we were told the plot would be dug up before the service). The employees told everyone we had to vacate the grave site premises. When we asked why the site was not dug up, no one gave us an answer. The employee kept saying “we are not sure”. While, most of my grandmothers friends and family left the site. I made sure at least one person stayed to make sure she was actually lowered into the ground. The one loved they allowed to stay at the grave site witnessed them lower my grandmother into the grave 4.5 hours after the service. This leads us to questions -were they actually going to bury my grandmother ? What were they going to do what her body and her casket ? Williams funeral Home robbed us of our last moments with our loved one. Seeing a loved one’s body lowered into the ground provides a sense of closure to know they are put to rest peacefully, which Williams Funeral Home took from us. DO NOT USE THEM TO BURY YOUR LOVED ONE. If i could give them 0 stars I would”
