- 4 local trucking companies: the freight you haul, the areas you cover and a contact form for shippers.
County-wide, Audubon County counts 184 businesses with employees and 411 self-employed or nonemployer businesses (2023).

Iowa and federal rules for small business websites
Selling or advertising online brings no special license, but a few apply to many Exira businesses:
- Iowa’s state sales tax rate is 6%, and many cities and counties add a 1% local option sales tax on top of it. Iowa Department of Revenue
- The Iowa Consumer Data Protection Act rarely reaches a local business: Businesses doing business in Iowa or targeting Iowa residents that, in a calendar year, control or process personal data of at least 100,000 consumers, or of at least 25,000 consumers while deriving over 50% of gross revenue from selling personal data. A typical small website or online store is far below both thresholds and is outside the law. Iowa Code chapter 715D (SF 262, 2023)
