Our Story

Founded on expertise and dedication, our company was established by Ronnie Clifton Sr., a seasoned crane operator with over four decades of hands-on experience. Mr. Clifton's comprehensive knowledge spanned the realms of operation, inspection, repair, maintenance, and instructional training for the very units he certified. His commitment to excellence and safety set the standard within the company.

In April 2024, our founder, Mr. Ronnie Clifton Sr., passed away, leaving a profound legacy and a company built on his unwavering principles. His son, Tyler Clifton, now leads the company, driven by the same passion and commitment to delivering exceptional service and upholding the values instilled by his father.

Under Tyler's leadership, we continue to honor Mr. Clifton's legacy by providing top-tier equipment inspections. Our team remains dedicated to ensuring the safety, reliability, and efficiency of every crane we certify, carrying forward the trusted reputation established by Ronnie Clifton himself.

At Carson Crane, we blend years of experience with a forward-thinking approach. We strive to exceed expectations and maintain the highest standards of service in the industry.
