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.

“We had our weeding here in October 2025. The venue, value and customer service were amazing. We went with the PCC for the value and the food. Who doesn't love pierogies and halupkis. The cost was very reasonable. The PCC team worked with us through every step of the process. The event went off without a hitch. Adam and Kris are amazing, and we would recommend this place to anyone.”

“What a great venue! Adam & team were amazing to work with. Prompt & clear communication, fair pricing, great service. We considered many other venues throughout the county, but this was the best fit - they provided the greatest flexibility with food, timing, vendors, linens, etc. They offered us options and suggestions, and were willing to accommodate our specific requests. Highly recommend.”
