TIMELINE
Our History
Jim Bragg started Bragg Crane Service with just one crane in the Signal Hill oil fields.
Through an acquisition, Bragg Heavy Transport was established and Bragg Companies was moved from the original Signal Hill location to Long Beach.
Bragg’s third core division was established: Bragg Crane & Rigging.
Bragg Crane Service acquires Bay Cities Crane & Rigging and expands north to their Richmond, CA location in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Bragg moved directly across Paramount Boulevard and formally established the Bragg Companies Headquarters we still use today. The former location is home to our Coastline Equipment headquarters and Long Beach dealership.

Due to an increase in work at amusement parks and space facilities, Bragg Crane and Rigging opened an office in Merritt Island, Florida.
In 2021, Bragg Companies celebrates the achievement of 75 years in business! What started as one crane in the Signal Hill oil fields has grown into a national company boasting expertise across industries!
