Crane lifts and construction across Southwest Washington and Northwest Oregon, with every town Westmore serves listed below.
Westmore provides crane and construction services across Clark County in Washington, Multnomah County in Oregon, and the cities strung from Everett and Seattle down through Tacoma, Olympia, Portland, and Salem, plus the Oregon coast from Astoria to Newport. One company runs two divisions. Crane and Rigging sends an NCCCO certified operator with every machine, and the rigging for the pick comes with it, from a 55 ton truck crane on a fenced residential lot to the 350 ton Grove on an industrial pick. Construction and Steel carries commercial projects from preconstruction through steel erection and exterior finishing. Contractors book rooftop unit swaps and steel sets, plant and warehouse owners book heavy rigging and new buildings, and homeowners book hot tub and spa lifts.
Westmore Construction is a family run company at 30519 NE Harrison Road in Battle Ground, Washington, licensed and insured to work in either state. Washington cities keep their own street use and right of way desks, Oregon cities keep theirs, and an over legal equipment move clears WSDOT on one side and ODOT on the other. None of that lands on the customer. Send the address, the weight or the plans, and a photo of where a crane would have to stand, and you get the machine, the permit path, and one point of contact for the work.
Crane and construction work across Clark, Cowlitz, and Multnomah counties and beyond. Routine crane runs cover Tacoma down to Salem, and for the right lift we go farther.
Not on the list? Call anyway. If the lift makes sense, we will find a way to get a crane there.
A contractor licensed on one side of the state line cannot legally sign for the work on the other. Westmore holds both, WESTMCL836OJ in Washington, CCB 234945 in Oregon, the Oregon credential classified Commercial General Contractor Level 1. A one million dollar liability policy applies in each. So a project touching Washington and Oregon keeps the same contractor, the same crew, and one certificate of insurance instead of being handed to a second outfit partway through.
Every crane in the fleet works under an NCCCO certified operator, and that operator and the rigging travel with the machine in either state. Washington sets its own Labor and Industries requirements for the operator in the seat, and Westmore's people meet them. Six years of Washington licensing with zero violations sits behind that.
Street and right of way approvals are city business, and each city keeps its own desk on its own clock. In Vancouver that desk sits inside Public Works Traffic Engineering, and a setup that closes an intersection or takes three or more lanes is coordinated with the city traffic engineers. Longview reviews right of way applications inside its Public Works Engineering Division. Portland calls for a PBOT Temporary Street Use Permit before a crane sets up in a public street. Salem asks for three business days of notice ahead of a lane closure, and Keizer reviews its own filings.
Oversize equipment moves are the state layer rather than the city one. Oregon handles over dimension permits at ODOT, and the trigger is height over 14 feet, width over 8 feet 6 inches, or weight over 80,000 pounds, which is a threshold crane components and counterweights can cross. Washington runs the equivalent program at WSDOT. So what actually changes between one state and the other is which license signs the work, which city desk reviews the street use, and which state program clears an over legal load. Westmore is the applicant on all of it, and the customer signs nothing.
"Think Seal Team 6 of Crane Work! Westmore was able to scramble, rearrange their schedule and drive a Crane 15 hours across the state to get us out of a jam on Generator set for Walmart, highly recommend these Professionals"

"Fast to work with me when I had a short notice crane pick request for downtown Portland. Yikes. No problem for these guys. They nailed the permit, traffic, and planning submittals in no time... They were safe, they worked fast... From the big boy 350 Ton to little boy crane needs - they are our team now."

"We have did multiple projects across the greater Clark County WA area with Warren and his team, from picking our transformer or vaults or any craning needs we have. Fast, efficient, but at the same time very safe with their walk arounds and set up procedures, making sure everything is in the right order. Highly recommend them to anyone needing reputable crane services."

Most likely. Westmore covers ground from Everett and Seattle down through Tacoma, Olympia, Portland, and Salem, and west to the Oregon coast from Astoria to Newport, and the represented area reaches as far north as Seattle, as far south as Salem, and west to the Oregon coast, Wilsonville and Lincoln City with it. A town without its own page here is not outside that range. Send the address and what needs lifting or building and it gets answered directly.
Yes, the same operators and the same three machines work either state. Westmore is licensed on both sides: WESTMCL836OJ in Washington, CCB 234945 in Oregon, with a liability policy of one million dollars in each state. A project touching both states keeps one contractor and one certificate instead of being handed off partway through.
Yes, and the offices are separate. Washington cities like Vancouver and Longview run their own right of way approvals through city public works departments, while a Portland setup goes to the PBOT temporary street use program. Oversize transport is ODOT in Oregon and WSDOT in Washington. A job touching both states can mean two applications rather than one.
Yes. The building side covers the same represented area as the crane division, Washington and Oregon both, under an active contractor license in each state. Completed work includes Tracker Safe in Vancouver, Builders FirstSource in Woodland, and Creekside Plaza in Vancouver. Cranes and NCCCO certified operators for those erections come from in house rather than a hired outfit.
A pick that stays entirely on private property books against crane availability alone, with no agency in the way. A setup taking street or sidewalk space runs on the reviewing agency clock instead: Vancouver asks for a day of notice, Salem asks for three business days, and Portland runs its own review on the temporary street use filing. The class of machine the job needs is the other constraint.
Send the location and the basics on the job, and you get a straight answer on the crane class, the permit path, and which division owns the work. Call for the fastest answer.
