Van Meter's Iowa City electrical supply branch - known as one of our most energy-efficient locations - was built in 2011, is LEED certified, and serves as a showcase of the products we carry to support green building efforts. As with many of our other branches, you'll find nearly all of our automation, datacomm, electrical, energy, lighting, medium-voltage, and outside plant solutions here. Our drive-through service helps reduce the amount of time you have to spend picking up product orders. We also have dedicated space for onsite customer training and education (much of which qualifies for electrical CEUs). Look for us across from the Iowa City Municipal Airport on Rupport Road.
