Our Program
The Iowa Waste Exchange (IWE) is one of the nation's premier materials exchange programs. There is a booming market for byproducts and wastes produced by Iowa institutions and businesses. Since 1990 the Iowa Waste Exchange has matched over 2.6 million tons, keeping waste out of landfills and into our economy saving Iowans $59.6 million by diverting this waste into production and use.

Participate in the IWE
The IWE is designed to keep waste out of the landfills and in production. Many industry, business and even local governments dispose of items others can use. Our representatives are available to help anyone who is looking for a specific item or has items they are willing to give away.
