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.

“Aside from having very competitive pricing, the staff at Pacific Interment Service were patient and compassionate. Our family had several of what I would call non-standard requests which were treated as perfectly normal. And after the cremation, they made sure that all of our requests were carried out. Because of their many years in the business, they were able to let us know about taking cremains out of the country, including the paperwork and bureaucracy involved. I would recommend their business to anyone who needs cremation services.”

“I couldn't have picked a better place in terms of having my grand Father's unexpected and recent passing taken care of. Amanda at pacific was extremely responsive, and super communicative on the entire process. This was my first time dealing with a death and I was extremely lost on everything, but Pacific Interment Service made everything seamless. I really appreciate everything that was done, and how it all was handled. Open and honest place!”
— Atif Faraz
“I'm so grateful that Pacific Interment helped me through the tough times a couple months ago when my dad passed away. They're friendly and professional, the whole process is super easy, the pricing is really reasonable, and I highly recommend them.”
