SC&RA to Celebrate 60th Anniversary in 2008

December 12, 2007 • The Specialized Carriers & Rigging Association (SC&RA) will commemorate its 60th anniversary throughout 2008. What began as a handful of American companies has grown steadily over the years into an international trade association of more than 1,300 member companies from 47 nations.

Six companies that were members of the fledgling organization remain members of SC&RA 60 years later:

Dawes Rigging & Crane Rental, Milwaukee, Wis.
Dobson Industrial, Inc., Bay City, Mich.
Hastings Truck Company, Kalamazoo, Mich.
Main Trucking & Rigging, Elmwood Park, N.J.
Southwestern Industrial Contractors, El Paso, Texas
Wilhelm Trucking & Rigging, Portland, Ore.

While reflecting on 60 years of progress, the association plans to move forward on its mission of "providing the unique information and other lawful activities worldwide members need to safely, legally and profitably transport, lift, and erect oversize and overweight items."
