Ask the licensed provider for an itemized General Price List before you buy. Under the FTC Funeral Rule, you have a right to that list. Read the full consumer-rights explainer on the General Price List guide. Package definitions stay on the direct cremation and cremation vs. burial guides — this page does not reprint them.
Local planning in Dallas
Downtown Dallas sits at the Trinity and the I-30 / I-35E interchange. Relatives often fly into Dallas/Fort Worth International (DFW) or Dallas Love Field (DAL). Those are different airports and different transfer miles. A later gathering in a rented hall in Oak Cliff or Uptown is usually a separate hire.
The DFW metro band starts from NFDA 2023 national medians times a documented metro multiplier. The Texas statewide band sits nearer the national median. Sample ZIP 75201 is not a quote for Fort Worth, Plano, or every 752xx ZIP.
