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.

“Hemet Valley Mortuary was by far the best experience I’ve had with a mortuary. The loved they showed my grandmother and family was overwhelming. This Mortuary made me feel like family. The family book that allows guest that attends the service to sign in and leave a note, brought tears to my eyes. The programs that Archer designed was simple and straight to the point. The cremation was back before I could really plan a service. The whole family at Hemet Valley Mortuary was so loving and caring during my hard times and I thank each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart.”

“Hemet Valley Mortuary was incredible to work with during one of the most difficult times my family has ever faced. They were compassionate, professional, and made the entire process feel manageable when everything else felt overwhelming. Archer was amazing—kind, patient, and genuinely supportive. He made sure every detail was handled with care and made us feel supported every step of the way. We are extremely grateful for everything he did for our family. Highly recommend Hemet Valley Mortuary to anyone needing compassionate, trustworthy care”

“The last few weeks have been a rollercoaster of emotion and pain after suddenly lossing my dad, but Archer walked us through this difficult process with kindness, compassion, and understanding. He added small bits of humor during difficult moments and answered all of our questions without making us feel small. He took a lot of care when working with us through all the details and steps; taking in what we wanted and offering support when we weren't sure. Archer also worked with us to ensure we were able to honor my dad by easing our stress about costs. He was always professional and respectful, making an overwhelming and hard process manageable and easier to navigate. I honestly cannot say enough good things about Archer and his whole team at Hemet Valley Mortuary.”
