The 1940 census is available. It is not yet indexed but if you have time you may browse pages fairly easily. Bremer County is at
http://1940census.archives.gov/search/?search.census_year=1940&search.city=&search.county=Bremer%20County&search.page=1&search.result_type=image&search.state=IA#searchby=location&searchmode=browse&year=1940
Selection of township is fairly easy though it might be daunting to find someone in Waverly it is possible as I found my Dad and my Mom's family in about 10 minutes.
Indexing will probably be done first by Familysearch.org. They have a significant group of volunteers(myself included) that have finished about 10 states in 2 weeks. They have an excellent system for data checking and I highly recommend it. You do not have to be a Mormon(LDS) member to participate and you will get no nongenealogical information. Commercial vendors including Ancestry are also working on it but only have 2 states last I checked. I do not know about other services.
