Waste & Recycling Deals: Family Office Capital Raise Done Right
When the deal is waste and recycling and the question is Family Office Capital Raise, the structure decisions in the first 30 days outlast the next five years. This is where Jason Powell works.
Waste & Recycling deals in the lower middle market run a specific playbook. Family Office Capital Raise is where the structure either holds or starts to leak.
The typical waste and recycling platform sits at $12M to $150M EV with EBITDA in the $3M to $25M range. The thesis runs on regional hauler or transfer station consolidation. Permitted volume is the asset, not the trucks. Diligence the permits before the EBITDA.
How Family Office Capital Raise actually gets structured.
Lead with the deal and the structure, not with the firm pitch. Family offices invest in deals first.
Build a Reg D 506(b) or 506(c) deck depending on whether you have a pre-existing relationship.
Confirm accredited or qualified-purchaser status before sharing transactional detail.
Match the LP's preferred check size to the position you can offer in the deal.
In waste and recycling, layer in permit transfer applications filed before LOI signing as part of the Family Office Capital Raise workstream.
Pitching family offices the same way you pitch institutional PE. They want shorter conversations and tighter alignment, not a fund deck.
"Family offices are not small institutions. They are sophisticated buyers of single positions. Pitch accordingly."Jason Powell · Family Office Capital Raise
The deal is one thing. The capital that opens up after close is another.
Most independent sponsors solve the closing capital and then run into the post-close capital problem alone. The capital markets relationships that matter at month 18 are part of this practice.
