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
“We just had my my mother's memorial held at Evergreen and I highly recommend Ken and his staff ❤. I was looking for a funeral home that was centrally located for visitors from Manhattan, NJ, Brooklyn and the Bronx and it was the perfect location. Before my mother passed away, I contacted Evergreen to inquire about the process and Ken was very accommodating and thorough and basically helped us get our ducks in a row. On the day that my mother passed away, his staff immediately answered the phone and started the process for her memorial. And Ken and his staff was available for any questions. From beginning to end, it was such a seamless process and I highly recommend Evergreen to handle any funeral arrangements needed.”
— Jessica Madero
“Ken and staff were very respectful and kind to our entire immediate and extended families. We have gone to him for many of our funerals and the care he puts into his work is amazing. Great and kind service was shown for my grandmothers, uncles and family funerals. Definitely would recommend him to others for their funeral needs.”
— Julie P

Ken and Konstantin were very competent in handling all the preparations needed. They answered all our questions and attended to all our needs. All phone calls and texts were answered in a timely manner. Everything was done with such dignity and grace. Thank you, Ken, for your compassion in making us feel comforted during our time of mourning. I'm grateful to have chosen Evergreen and highly recommend to those who have lost a loved one.”
