Perches Funeral Homes - West

Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

What Families Say
“After contacting several funeral homes, Perches provided the most affordable prices for their service. I was pleased with the service provided for my Father. Location on Desert Blvd. is updated and well kept. Perches staff was very professional, respectful, and helpful.”
— Mikey Gomez
“During our difficult time Perches made everything so easy for our family. From the moment I called for questions on where to start, Jorge Ortiz, went above and beyond for us. He was prompt with answering all questions, and making all arrangements. All of our wishes were honored and each and every member of staff were helpful and went above and beyond to accommodate my family. Our family will continue to chose Perches, because of the exceptional service, sympathy, and support they provide. We couldn’t be thankful enough for all you did, I recommend to anyone who needs an preeminent outcome environment and exceptional service !”
— Daisy Lucero
“The unprofessionalism, insensitivity and lack of care for what they are doing is astounding to me. The funeral director- Richard- explained nothing, made sure to make us aware of what he could NOT do, how difficult time he would have with other funeral homes, and didn’t explain anything just asked for signatures. Had I not asked questions we would have been left in the dark. This is the wrong business for him. They also misspelled my dads name 2 times on the site. Do not use this funeral home if you care to have a good service for your loved one.”
— Stephanie Morales
