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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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
“Allen Funeral Home and my primary contact at the funeral home, Josh Allen, did a top notch job with my father's recent funeral. They took care of the coordination with the Bloomsburg Press Enterprise on the obituary submission, coordination with another funeral home located out of the area (which took care of the embalming, death certificates, life insurance, etc.) on a second viewing, contacting the local Catholic church to secure a priest's services for the memorial service, and working with the cemetery regarding burial information. The doves they released during the internment services at the cemetery were a very nice, added touch. Their extensive work on my family's behalf made our lives a lot easier during a challenging time. I can't say enough good things about Allen Funeral Home. Highly recommended.”
— Chip Millard
“Allen Funeral Home did a wonderful job with my father's recent funeral. Roger and Maurice, our contacts in making arrangements, handled everything absolutely perfectly. The process was unfamiliar to me, but their patient guidance helped immeasurably. I couldn't have asked for anything better.”
— John C. Garcia
“There are things in life that are just plain unfortunate and not fun. Death is one of them. When it happens, you are never prepared for it, physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. At the Allen Funeral Home, Roger, Joshua and Maurice will make you feel just that, at Home. These 3 gentlemen have a heart for not only your loved one, but for you as family and friends of the one who has passed on. There are many Funeral Homes out there along with many Funeral Directors. I find it very hard to have other Funeral businesses of the same magnitude as the Allen Funeral Home. I challenge anyone to find a better place to entrust your loved one to. And I also challenge anyone to find more experienced, talented, caring and kind Directors as Roger, Joshua and Maurice are. Thank you for setting the bar high and keeping the saddest time of life an experience where one can feel that they made the best choice for their loved one.”
