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.

“Albert, Jason and the entire staff and team at Falardeau's were outstanding. From the time we walked in the door to discuss our needs through the final arrangements they were thorough, caring and extremely sensitive to our desires and family. You would be hard pressed to find a better staff to take care of one's funeral needs. I am thankful for them making the process as painless as possible given the circumstances. What a great team of professionals. Once again, Thank you from our family.”
— Henry Sanchez, Jr
“Falardeau Funeral Home is one of the best in the business! Albert and his team have continued this legacy of excellence begun in 1940 with the Falardeau Family. They have prayerfully journeyed with so many of our parishioners grieving the loss of a loved one and treated each one as if they were a member of their own family! Grateful for their pastoral presence and professionalism!!”
