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.

“They could not be more professional, kind, respectful and compassionate. This was not just the showing and funeral but throughout the year with text checking in during the Holidays and 1 year anniversary. They want to ensure after grieving you can continue with your life and not withdraw from your loss. The owners and staff helped me get through this tough time. See photo of a Christmas tree decorating ceremony where they invited families who lost loved ones that year that could share time to remember, talk and decorate a tree with customized ornaments that they donated to each family.”

“The team at Yorktown Funeral Home did a terrific job working with our family during a very difficult time. They were caring and professional every step of the way. My mom passed away out of state and Anthony and team handled every aspect of bringing her back to NY for her burial. The support they provided throughout the process was top notch. Couldn’t have asked for more. Our family appreciates all that you did and the professional way you did it Thank you”
