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.

“I can't recommend Sig's Funeral & Cremation Services in Bellingham highly enough. During one of the most difficult times in my family's life, the team at Sig's provided exceptional care, compassion, and professionalism from start to finish. The staff, including Ryan and the owner Sig Aase, were incredibly empathetic and patient, guiding us through every step with kindness and understanding. They truly believe that every life is unique, and they helped us create a personalized service that perfectly honored our loved one's memory. The options for both traditional services and cremation were affordable and flexible, and their online arrangement tools made things easier when we were dealing with out-of-state logistics. What stood out most was how they went above and beyond to lighten our burden—handling details with respect and attention, while offering ongoing grief support resources. It's clear they see this as a privilege to serve families, and it shows in everything they do. If you're in Whatcom County or the Bellingham area and need compassionate funeral services, Sig's is the place to trust. Thank you for making a heartbreaking process as supportive and dignified as possible.”

“We have turned to Sig's Funeral & Cremation Services multiple times over the years — for both of my parents, my husband’s parents, and most recently my brother — and every single experience has been handled with the utmost care, compassion, and professionalism. Justin, Sig, Marva and Natalie have consistently gone above and beyond to make difficult times a little easier, guiding us through every detail with patience and understanding. The services were beautiful and respectful, and the entire team treated our family like their own. We are deeply grateful for their kindness, support, and the peace of mind they’ve given us each time. I recommend Sig's to everyone I know because I trust them completely and know they will provide the same kindness and respect to others.”

“I can’t thank the staff at Sigs enough for how phenomenal they were to my family & I. Being 30 and trying to plan a funeral for your Grandmother isn’t the easiest but the staff at Sigs made sure I understood all my options and answered every question I had. Justin was great at helping plan the service with guidance from what my Grandmother wanted and gave good insight on what other items may cost. Marva made sure the funeral programs were perfect and Sig was always checking in making sure we didn’t need anything else while there. They did a wonderful job making my Grandma look perfect for the viewing. They also assisted us in moving my Grandfather from one cemetery to another and made that process far simpler than it would have been with anyone else. Can’t thank the family enough for their compassion at such a difficult time!”
