Is there a place, preferably in West Central Iowa, that you can dispose of old appliances? Got a few things I’m looking to get rid of and just need to find a final resting place for them.

Call a metal scrap yard. There are people who recycle them and they would probably know who.
I think that scrap yard off the Highway by Schaller would take it if youre remotely close to there.
Check with your utilities company. Ours provides rebates for recycling appliances
We did this for an old refrigerator. Mid American gave us $50, and it didn't even run.
Usually they have to be in working condition and it's only refrigerators and freezers.
Along these lines, I am looking for old parts, specifically the wash drum, from a washing machine. Anyone know of a place I can get one? Would I have to get an entire junked out washer and take it apart myself? I want to make a fire pit from the drum.
I live about 1/4 mile from a trailer park in the country. Apparently they think gravel road ditches and creeks are public dumping grounds too.
usually hardware stores that do installs have the machines they have replaced sitting somewhere at the store. At one point you could get lowes to sell you one for $50
That would entail the disassembly route however
Ankeny Sanitation does our garbage pickup. They will take care of them if we put them by the curb. We have to buy a $10 sticker from the city first, though.
