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
“Pierre and Karine were incredible to work with during a very difficult time. They are compassionate, kind, knowledgeable and made the mortuary/cremation process seamless. They were quick to respond to our call, emails and questions. Pierre and team arrived quickly upon our mother's passing. They were respectful and professional all along the way. We planned to take our mother's remains to another country for her funeral there and they were very knowledgeable about what forms would be required. They truly made the entire process simple. We highly recommend Always There.”
— Bernsteins Randy & Aly
“Pierre was so calming , kind and professional when making arrangements for my mother. My mother was on hospice, so I had several conversations with Pierre prior to her passing. When she passed, I notified Always There and within a short time they arrived and cared for my mother with gentle dignity. Thank you , The Bouvet Family”
