SHANE best
Best Endeavours, Inc. started its journey in the tower and rigging industry in the mid 90’s in the D.C. market helping to build the cellular infrastructure there for a company called “Antenna Sites Inc”. After the cellular explosion, things got slow so we branched out into other aspects of the tower industry including site management, the two-way market and some small broadcast work.
Feeling a need to broaden his horizons, Shane took a job with United States Tower Service in Frederick, MD and there he began to develop a strong foundation of rigging skills, an understanding of the tower structures and the antenna systems that they support, and the communications industry as a whole. That foundation was heavily built upon over the next 6 years with Shane’s transition to the company Tower King II in 2003, and under the tutelage of Kevin Barber, its founder, and president, he helped build some of the tallest structures known to man, installing some of the most powerful broadcast antennas on earth. The company was featured on National Geographic Channel’s, “World’s Toughest Fixes” Season 1, 2000′ Tower.
After a fantastic time working for Tower King II, it was time to go out on his own…
Thus beginning the voyage of Best Endeavours, Inc….

Shane Best founded Best Endeavors, which has offices in San Francisco and Wakefield, R.I., and Owen Garland is part owner of Vertical Technology Services, which has offices off Sharpsburg Pike, south of Hagerstown.
Best and Garland have built about 30 towers between them, and their companies specialize in hoisting huge antennas weighing thousands of pounds so they can be attached to the tops of the structures…
