Most companies that operate bucket trucks in Central Oregon are power utilities, telecom carriers, or tree services — and none of them are taking calls from local businesses that just need aerial work done. Richesin Engineering operates two bucket trucks out of Madras, and we make them available for hire across Jefferson, Deschutes, Crook, and Wasco counties. Our crews are professional, licensed under Oregon CCB# 246006, and safety-trained for aerial work.

Why Richesin Engineering vs. a Rental Yard

Renting a bucket truck means you're also renting the liability, the operator training requirement, and the logistics headache. Hiring Richesin Engineering means you get the truck and a trained crew — insured, licensed, and experienced working at height in the conditions Central Oregon throws at you.

We're not a rental yard. We show up, we do the work, and we leave the site clean. Most jobs are scheduled within a few days.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you rent bucket trucks, or do you provide a crew?

We provide a crew with the truck — we're not a rental yard. You hire us to do the work, and we show up with a trained, insured operator and handle the job from start to finish. If you need bare equipment rental, that's a different business. If you need aerial work done safely and professionally, that's us.

What reach do your bucket trucks have?

Our bucket trucks provide working heights suitable for most commercial applications — sign work, parking lot lighting, rooftop access, and aerial cable runs. Contact us with your specific height requirement and we'll confirm whether our equipment is right for your job.

Are you licensed and insured for aerial work in Oregon?

Yes. Richesin Engineering LLC holds Oregon CCB license #246006 and maintains full general liability and workers' compensation insurance. Our crews are safety-trained for aerial lift operations.

How quickly can you schedule a job?

Most jobs in the Madras / Central Oregon area can be scheduled within a few business days depending on crew availability. For urgent work, call us directly at (541) 312-6233 and we'll do our best to fit you in.

What areas of Central Oregon do you cover?

We're based in Madras and regularly serve Jefferson, Deschutes, Crook, and Wasco counties — including Bend, Redmond, Prineville, Sisters, La Pine, Terrebonne, Warm Springs, and Crooked River Ranch. We also mobilize statewide for the right project.

Can you do telecom or fiber work from the bucket truck?

Yes — our crews are experienced telecom technicians, not just equipment operators. We can perform aerial fiber lashing, strand installation, drop installations, antenna mounts, and other telecom-specific aerial work that requires both the lift and the technical know-how.
