How far in advance do I need to book flaggers?
The sooner the better, but we handle emergencies and can usually dispatch flaggers within an hour of your call, depending on availability. For larger projects, at least one week notice is preferred.
What areas of Oregon do you serve?
We're based in Springfield and cover a 30-mile radius with no additional travel charges. For projects farther out, travel time is billed at our standard rate. Projects 120 miles or more from Springfield lasting multiple days include a per diem/meal allowance based on Oregon county rates.
Is there a minimum call-out time?
Yes. For standard wage rate jobs, there's a 4-hour minimum. For prevailing wage jobs, the minimum is 2 hours.
Can you provide night work or weekend coverage?
Yes. Work performed between 6PM and 6AM or on weekends is billed at our overtime rate. Work on federally recognized holidays is billed at double time.
What safety protocols do your flaggers follow on-site?
Our flaggers follow all ODOT and MUTCD regulations. They wear high-visibility Class 3 safety gear, use two-way radios for communication, and ensure proper sign spacing and traffic control setup.
How do I become a certified flagger in Oregon?
You must complete an ODOT-approved Flagger Certification class taught by a certified instructor. While some websites offer online flagger courses, Oregon only recognizes classes approved by ODOT. We offer classes monthly at the Eugene Builders Exchange. View upcoming class dates
