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.

“George King is "top-notch" when it comes to all aspects of planning funeral arrangements during a time of loss, and with such compassion. His demeanor is perfect for such an emotional time. George conducted my Dad's funeral perfectly. I'm a perfectionist and I pay attention to detail - - still, I can say that George lived up to my expectations. Pellerin Funeral Home is very clean and spacious. There's even a private area for the family. All of our needs were not only met, but Pellerin's exceeded expectations. I highly recommend Pellerin Funeral Home. -Carla”

“Pellerin Funeral Home always goes above and beyond. From picking up your loved one to planning the funeral all the way to the burial. The care and kindness, the attention to details is all extremely appreciated. The staff were very warm and comforting when we were an absolute mess. My family was so very pleased with Ms. Denise and every single staff person that we met with. Exceptional service for one of life’s hardest times.”

“I was so pleased at the respect, professionalism, kindness, knowledge, and compassion exhibited toward us by the folks at PELLERIN’S Funeral Home in Breaux Bridge. There was nothing left undone. If we asked, they provided; if we questioned, they responded clearly; if we forgot, they raised the question; if it could be done, they got it done; they knew how to get things done. That kind of service comes only from caring, experienced, knowledgeable, and compassionate individuals. They made it easy on us. We were not pressured in any way; but were walked thru the complete process at our speed so that we were totally comfortable with the decisions we made and in their ability to carry them out. I recommend David and Emma be your contact when your need arrives. They are awesome.”
