At McCall Monument, we serve families across Central Iowa with care, clarity, and local knowledge. A question we often hear is, “Which cemeteries do you work with?”

The truth is, we’ve been working in this same region for over 150 years. That history means we do more than install memorials — we know the land, the communities, and the people who care for each cemetery.

Local Roots. Longstanding Relationships.

Because we have served Iowa families for generations, we already know who to call, where to get approval, and what each cemetery allows. From large city cemeteries to small country plots, we have personal working relationships with caretakers and staff.

We know which cemeteries require a drawing. We know who needs to approve granite color or size. We know how to work with Iowa weather and regional rules.

This saves your family time and frustration — and ensures your memorial is placed respectfully and without delay.

Where We Work: Our 50-Mile Radius

We have offices in Newton, Des Moines, Pella, and Marshalltown, and serve a 50-mile radius around each. This includes hundreds of cemeteries throughout:

Polk County
Jasper County
Marion County
Marshall County
Mahaska County
Warren County
Story County
Tama County
Poweshiek County

If your cemetery is nearby, we’ve likely been there many times before.

Examples of Cemeteries We Regularly Serve

Newton Union Cemetery
Glendale Cemetery in Des Moines
Oakwood Cemetery in Pella
Riverside Cemetery in Marshalltown
Graceland Cemetery in Knoxville
Restland Cemetery in Baxter
Forest Cemetery in Oskaloosa
Pleasant Hill Cemetery in Prairie City
Hazelwood Cemetery in Grinnell

This is only a small sample. We have installed monuments in public and private cemeteries, churchyards, rural family plots, and city-managed grounds.

Why Local Experience Matters

Every cemetery has its own guidelines, fees, and approval process. When planning a memorial, it’s easy to feel unsure about what’s allowed or what paperwork is required.

With McCall Monument, you don’t have to guess. We handle all communication with the cemetery, confirm placement options, and ensure the memorial meets every local rule before it’s even made.

That’s the benefit of working with a company rooted in the same communities for over a century. We know who to call, what to do, and how to guide you through every step.

Need to Confirm Your Cemetery? Just Ask.

If your loved one is buried within 50 miles of one of our locations, we are ready to help. Even if you live out of state, our local knowledge ensures a smooth and respectful process.
