Will the funeral home accept products that I buy elsewhere? The answer is Yes. THE FUNERAL RULE:
* They may not refuse service, cause duress, embarrassment, or cast aspersions in any way onto persons choosing to bring their own products into a funeral home from an outside source.
* They may not alter routine charges based on the acceptance of outside merchandise.
* They may not require the family to present at the time of delivery.
* They may not charge any fee for handling or inspection that would discourage third party vendors of caskets, vaults, monuments, flowers, or printed material such as registry books and acknowledgement cards.
* Remember, we can save you money, even if you use our prices to negotiate a cheaper casket from the funeral home. We're just trying to help...

Will the funeral home charge me a handling fee?
No. By law the funeral home can not charge you a handling or service fee when you choose to buy a casket from a third party.

What rights does the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Funeral Rule provide me?
The Funeral Rule, enforced by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), protects consumers by allowing them to purchase funeral items, such as caskets, from a source other than a funeral home, without being penalized in any way.
When you begin the arrangement process, the funeral director, by law, must give you a General Price List of the goods and services they provide. With the exception of the non-declinable fee (the basic fee of the funeral director and staff, which must be accepted), you can select or omit any item on their general price list. The funeral director cannot change the prices on their list, charge you a fee, or offer you a different price list to penalize you if you wish to buy a casket elsewhere.

What types of caskets are available through Main St. Caskets? We offer a wide variety of brands, styles, colors, and materials. Some of these include steel, hardwood, and copper. Some are domestic, but many are imported. Do not be afraid of imported caskets. Many "Big Brand" domestic casket companies manufacture their caskets outside the United States, and our quality is just as good, if not better.
