The Iowa Waste Reduction program recently helped some of the families who were hit by flooding in Clay County. Iowa Waste Exchange Coordinator Shelly Codner says they were able to send unneeded mattresses and beds from Iowa State University to Spencer.

The Iowa Waste Reduction Program was created to find ways to use items that are no longer needed to keep them out of the landfills. Codner says the beds from ISU filled an important need and was an economic benefit to Spencer.

Codner says Sukup Manufacturing donated the trucks to move the beds to Spencer.

Codner says this was one of the more rewarding projects they worked on, knowing the need for those who have suffered from the flooding.
