4-Horn Trench & Shoring, a leading provider of trench safety equipment and engineering services for the underground construction industry, announces its expansion to Louisiana with the opening of a new facility in Bossier City, La., near Shreveport. The branch spans more than 1.5 acres and features a spacious, fully fenced laydown yard, a well-equipped warehouse, and ample office space to support 4-Horn Trench & Shoring’s continued growth. Located 16 minutes east of downtown Shreveport, the site offers access for customers and delivery logistics. 

The Shreveport branch marks a key milestone as 4-Horn Trench & Shoring’s first location in Louisiana and the seventh in its expanding network, joining established branches in major customer hubs such as Houston, Beaumont, Austin, San Antonio, and Fort Worth, Texas. Operations at the new branch will be led by outside sales representative Rylan Lawrence. 

“Our vision is to be the most admired rental company, with the strongest customer relationships, most loyal customers, and most engaged employees," said Rhett Lasserre, CEO of 4-Horn Trench & Shoring. "Opening our Shreveport branch means we can get trench safety gear to our customers faster, with the service and support they’ve come to expect from us. It’s a big step forward in helping more crews work confidently and efficiently in the field.” 

With the opening of the Shreveport branch, 4-Horn Trench & Shoring is well-positioned to serve contractors, municipalities, and industrial partners across Louisiana, East Texas, and the greater Gulf region, the company said. The new location carries a robust inventory of trench and shoring equipment including trench boxes, manhole boxes, hydraulic shoring, sheet pile, modular systems, road plates, and more. Whether for rental, purchase, or service, the Shreveport team is equipped to support a wide range of projects from general construction to municipal infrastructure, pipeline, and industrial development. 

“This location bridges our Texas network and enhances our ability to share fleet assets more efficiently,” said Jason Hefner, vice president of sales. “It ensures faster response times and better service for our rapidly growing customer base.” 

The new location aligns with 4-Horn Trench & Shoring’s strategic growth plan to expand its footprint and deliver industry-leading service to customers across North America.
