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.

“Came to Pawlaks Florist for the first time and we walked in. Everyone was so nice and gave us lots of options. They were able to put together a beautiful same day bouquet for homecoming! It worked out fabulous! Will return and highly recommend! And the price was right too! Thanks so much!”

“I live in another city and wanted to send my friend a birthday bouquet. Pawlaks did not disappoint!! I had a special request to have an additional item delivered with the flowers and they happily helped! Received a picture of the flowers from my friend and they were beautiful!! Highly recommend and despite living out of town, if I ever need flowers in the area, I will definitely order from them again!!”

“This was my second visit. Dec 2024 & Feb 2025. Each time, the service was beyond exceptional. The first time a young girl/lady waited on me. The second time an older lady serviced me. Both of these ladies made me feel welcomed and that I mattered not just my money. They were extremely helpful, customer service oriented. I purchased roses each time. The roses were beautiful & vibrant. I was totally satisfied with the service and product. I live nowhere near this florist but am willing to make it my go-to place for every occasion. The added bonus is that everything I looked at was very reasonably and competitively priced. Edited to add --- the business actually took the time to thank me for my review. This is what makes them exceptional. Going the extra mile!❤️ And Oh! Check out their classes as well. I plan to. UPDATED 3/17/2025!!!! These roses are still amazing three weeks in; they are still blooming beautifully. This is unreal (a picture added). I purchased them 0n 2/26/2025 (check the receipt date pictured) for my coworker's family member's funeral. Amazed that they were still lively she brought them to work last week to live out their days. I was blown away. They sit in our department where they are drawing lots of likes & love. They are going viral at work. The employees are requesting Pawlaks' info. I would give Pawlaks 100 stars, if possible. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ EDITED AGAIN! AMAZING!!! UPDATE. I added a week four photo. Photo taken at work yesterday 3/25/2025. They just began to go limp the end of week three. My coworkers wants to know where I purchased them. I only had one business card -- I gave it away.”
