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.

“Emre is the fastest and most efficient person I have ever worked with. My father passed away in the morning and by the afternoon everything was completely taken care of by him. My father was to be buried in another country and Emre took care of the consulate, funeral arrangements, flight arrangements, and everything else so we didn’t have to do a thing. I am so grateful for how easy he made the process so my family and I could focus on our loss. I highly recommend Bergen Funeral Service.”

“Losing my father was incredibly difficult, and we were completely unprepared for the administrative side of the burial process. Bergen provided a comforting environment, and Emre, in particular, was outstanding. He helped us navigate the decisions and paperwork with such patience and kindness. He truly went above and beyond to take the weight off our shoulders, allowing us to focus on honoring my father's memory rather than worrying about logistics. Everything was seamless and respectful. We are deeply grateful to Emre for his guidance and to Bergen for their exceptional service.”

“Imam Emre was the Imam and funeral director for my uncle's funeral (Janazaah) at the Bergen Funeral Service. I came from Canada to look after the burial as it was my uncle's request. I never met Imam Emre before coming to NJ. It was an amazing experience meeting the Imam. Words cannot describe the impact he had on me. He shared everything in detail and over the 4 days I spent in NJ. It was truly a blessing. He was detailed, attentive and most of all extremely personable. I was impressed and so was the entire family. Thank you Imam Emre and thank you Bergen Funeral Service.”
