Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

What Families Say
“Losing my mother was a hard reality of my life. But the hardest moment of my life yet, was the first moment of seeing her for the first time in the casket. The staff at Plainville Funeral Home were all so helpful and supportive during this difficult time. Blaire was the first person who responded to me , as many times as I sent an email, she responded. She went above and beyond to help me navigate all the unknown, from pricing to church selection. She customized every detail and took care of all arrangements- in a timely and gentle manner. Just what I needed when my heart was so fragile and shattered. From the moment I walked into the beautiful funeral home, the energy was professional, peaceful, and personal. This helped me prepare for the hardest moment of my life, seeing my mother for the first time after she left this earthly life. They restored her beautiful face, the makeup was just the way we asked, delicate and classy. They gave us the gift of comfort and closure. Thank you Andrea and Blaire !”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We recently held services for our mother at Plainville Funeral Home, and we are deeply grateful for the compassion and professionalism we experienced. From the very first meeting, Andrea, the owner, was kind and caring. She took the time to explain each step of the process, managed all of the insurance paperwork seamlessly, and presented options while truly listening to what we wanted. We also had the privilege of working with Jesse, the life celebrant, who brought warmth and light to a difficult time. Jesse helped us shift our focus from sadness to celebrating our mother’s life, weaving in the funny and joyful memories that made the service so meaningful. At the funeral, Jesse captured our mother’s spirit beautifully, creating a ceremony that honored her in the most heartfelt way. Plainville Funeral Home provided not only guidance but genuine care, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience during such a difficult time. We wholeheartedly recommend Plainville Funeral Home to anyone seeking compassionate support and a truly personalized service.”
