DOT SAP Evaluation in Wisconsin — 13 Providers Listed

Wisconsin's freight runs I-94 between Milwaukee and Madison and up to the Twin Cities, I-43 along the lake to Green Bay, and I-39/90 through the middle. Schneider National is headquartered in Green Bay, and paper, dairy, cheese and machinery are the state's steady loads. This page lists 13 providers in Wisconsin, 1 of which says on its own website it performs DOT SAP evaluations, with offices in Appleton. The other 12 listings are for treatment or testing, which you may need later in the process, not for the evaluation itself.

Wisconsin does not write its own SAP rules; no state does. The evaluation, the education or treatment plan, the follow-up evaluation and the observed return-to-duty test come from 49 CFR Part 40 and apply identically in every state. Where Wisconsin does come in is the CDL: the Wisconsin Division of Motor Vehicles removes the commercial privilege from a driver the Clearinghouse reports as prohibited — a 60-day requirement on every state since November 18, 2024 (FMCSA) — and puts it back when your status clears.

Yes, you can do the evaluation by video from Wisconsin: 49 CFR §40.291 leaves that to the SAP's discretion, and a legitimate telehealth SAP will tell you in one sentence whether their license covers Wisconsin. A SAP across the line in Michigan, Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois is also an option, in person or by video, under the same licensing question. The one step that always needs a collection site is the observed return-to-duty test; everything up to it can often be done from home.
