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.

“In September 2025 we got the call we'd dreaded, my younger brother was found deceased, he had completed suicide. He was homeless at the time of his death. But Jason treated us with care and respect , and we won't ever forget that! The compassion shown from the first call to pacific NW Cremation, was so welcomed especially shown to my mother, who begged Jason to fix her boy 💔. The cost was so much more affordable than our local funeral home. We are truly thankful for the referral from a friend for Pacific NW Cremation”

“October 2024 Our family turned to PNWC for the suddenly tragic death of my 28yro Son. During the most unbearably traumatic time we as a family have ever gone through together, everyone at PNWC were so helpful and kind but above all they were patient and understanding with all of us. My son has a big mix of biological and extended family as well as honorary family and I'm sure having so many people to talk with can be difficult. We mainly worked with Elizabeth who treated us all with respect, she listened to all of our needs and helped us navigate through all of the decisions and details we needed to get through for the funeral service, burial and celebration of Life. We couldn't have gotten through it without Elizabeth, she assisted us every step of the way. It takes very special people to do what they do and I am so thankful for everything PNWC did in helping us to make my son's funeral so special. Thank you PNWC so very much for everything you do.”

“During a most difficult time, everyone here made the experience pleasant. Starting with the front desk, she was kind, respectful and very helpful. The Funeral Director and all staff were also very helpful, respectful and kind. Everything we ordered from the catalog was beautiful, with one of the small urns really gorgeous. I would highly recommend their services.”
