Overview
Mission
The trade organization for Wisconsin's liquid waste industry, representing firms active in transporting and disposing liquid wastes.
What it reported doing in 2025
The Wisconsin liquid waste carriers association provided benefits to approximately 130 members. The winter convention was held in-person in 2025 and had approximately 228 attendees. The summer convention was cancelled. The association also held virtual seminars in the spring and fall of 2025, as well as a master operators class virtually in the spring. There were four face-to-face meetings of the governing body during the year and multiple additional videoconference meeting. A bi-monthly newsletter is sent to members and twice a year to the full industry. The association advocates on behalf of the industry on matters of code, licensing and other regulations.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.
The verdict
REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and liabilities are high compared with assets.
