About
Our Company
Shaver Transportation Company was founded by George W. Shaver in 1880. The Shaver family continues to own and operate the business today. We focus our efforts on four lines of business: ship assist, bulk commodity transportation, harbor/marine services, and emergency response and rescue.
Shaver is founded on the basic principles of safety, quality, reliability, experience, and service. We are dedicated to the protection of life and the environment. Our reputation for success is built on operating a powerful fleet with experienced employees.
Our depth of experience gives us unique knowledge to help with our customers’ needs. Shaver continues to reinvest in our company focusing on the future needs of our customers and the growth of the Columbia Snake River System.
We thank our valued customers and employees who continue to make us strong and successful. We look forward to collaborating with our customers, vendors and partners to make a difference in shipping and barging for generations to come.
