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.

“Perazzo Funeral Home is amazing. This was the first funeral I ever had to plan and the owner Peter and funeral director Janice were so incredibly patient and kind throughout the whole process, as well as Jennifer and the rest of the staff. They were extremely communicative and accommodating with my family and I as we tried to maneuver through this difficult time. My uncle's service was beautiful. I highly recommend Perazzo Funeral Home, especially to those who are going through their first funeral planning”

“Peter DeLuca and his entire staff continues to uphold the highest standards and professionalism that Perazzo funeral Home has always provided for the Greenwich Village community. My brother’s service was simply beautiful, giving his family and friends a time to reminisce and grieve together peacefully. I am forever grateful for their compassion, kindness and patience given to me during a difficult time.”

“The staff at the Perazzo funeral home are simply amazing and the service they provided during my family’s time of hardship couldn’t have been better. Everyone there was thoughtful, professional, and took a genuine initiative to do anything they could to help us. During times of grief, everything, even the smallest thought can become overwhelming… but with such incredible people like Peter and his staff, we felt at ease. They helped us through every detail and every bit of the process of planning a memorial, from the prayer cards to the music, to making sure we had enough chairs and space for the people coming to pay their respects in a beautiful, comfortable environment. I could not be more thankful for all that the people at Perazzo have done for my family and I.”
