Iowa rules and programs

  • Appliance and refrigerant rules

    Partly

    Iowa requires discarded appliances to be demanufactured by a permitted appliance demanufacturer, who removes refrigerant, mercury parts and PCB capacitors, before disposal. Your local solid waste agency can point you to a collection site.

  • Secured load law

    Yes

    No vehicle may be driven unless it is built or loaded, or its load securely covered, so nothing drops, sifts, leaks or escapes and the cover stays on. The scheduled fine is $260.
