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.

“My grandmother had her funeral here back in the 80s when I was a little girl. When my father passed I knew it is where I wanted him to be. I couldn’t have asked for a better place for him in such a horrible situation. He was treated with respect and so was I. In such a devastating situation they made me feel comfortable and content to know that my father was handled with care and respect. Everyone I made contact with was very personable and everyone there seemed to love their job. Definitely recommend.”

“My family and I have been fortunate enough to have Wujek Calcaterra handle the arrangements for our loved ones on more than one occasion, the kindness and compassion they have always shown us has been comforting to say the least. Our most recent interaction was with a young guy Max, he was great very helpful, respectful he was awesome. Mike was the one to call me the evening my Mom passed, Mike is another great guy who happens to be a friend of my cousin so he's familiar with my family always a comforting plus. So thank you very much for everything 🙏”

“After a long illness my husband passed away at home recently. We’d not discussed specific arrangements but I had attended funerals here and knew it was a nice place. As we waited for the hospice nurse to arrive, I reached out to this funeral home and was so impressed with their no nonsense but caring staff. From the gentlemen who helped transport my husband to the funeral director Dave who helped us make decisions based on our priorities without pressuring us once to buy something fancier or more expensive than we needed. The day of the visitation and the day of the funeral went off without a hitch and gave us some meaningful closure. My husband would have loved his funeral and that is the best compliment I have to offer to the whole staff at Wujek Calcaterra. Thank you for taking care of my family so well.”
