History

Established in 1958.

Locally owned since 1958, Barbur Blvd. Equipment Rentals was started by Richard Edwards and with guidance from Cora Edwards, as a sporting goods retail and rental shop for hunting, fishing and skiing equipment. Providing outstanding customer service and meeting customer demands, the company quickly evolved and in the 1960’s added tables, chairs and linens to their rental inventory for a party department.

Now known as Barbur Blvd. Rentals, the Edwards’ are branded for being experts in the party rental business throughout the Portland metropolitan for over 50 years. Their business grew exponentially and inventory went from table and chair settings for 200 to 10,000 in 6 years. In 1986, Scott Edwards launched a new division to expand the company. Oregon Event and Tent Company now provides tents for outdoor parties, structures for events, and much more!

Business Owner

Barbur Rentals when it was first established in 1958 was much different than it is today. We carried fishing poles, sporting equipment and more. The one thing that has never changed about us is our drive to provide «Do-​it-​Yourself» customers with the right tools to do their job. I have several years of experience and I started Oregon Event & Tent Co. (a division of Barbur Blvd. Rentals) because it was an area I felt Portland was lacking at the time. I was constantly getting calls for event rentals and felt the need to supply customers with what they wanted. We now run both Barbur Rentals and Oregon Event and Tent Co out of the same building in Portland, Oregon. We have recently been going through some changes and we strive to make continuous improvement our goal. If you have a concern or need help with something please feel free to send me a personal message. We have recently claimed our listing on Yelp, so I hope to provide feedback & personal messages on all future reviews.
