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.

“I have turned to Cobble Hill Chapels for the services for my mother, father, and now my mother-in-law. Matt and Joe are like extended family, making a very tough time a little easier with their professionalism, support and compassion. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Linda and Marshall”

“I went to Cobble Hill Chapels on 6/22/2025 to a viewing. I was so amazed by the appearance of the funeral home; which was so amazing inside & outside. The bathroom was clean. Joe was very professional. It was such a pleasure meeting him; & having a great conversation with him. God Bless U All!”
— LaCretia Welch
“Joe and Matthew were so kind and helpful when it came to arranging services for my dad. They were welcoming the minute we walked in and made us all feel like family. They answered specifics and didn't try to sell us on additional things like the other funeral homes did. Matthew called and updated us every step of the way including when my dad came back from the crematory. Everything was so well put together. Navigating the death of a parent was hard enough, Joe and Matthew made things so easy even the day of. Their kindness was unmatched, we cannot thank them enough!”
— Terri Lynn
