State License
STATE LCB LicenseRequired for all
Landscaping contractors operating in Medford, Oregon, must prioritize compliance with the Oregon Landscape Contractors Board (LCB). This state-level licensing is the foundation for legal operation, ensuring that contractors meet professional standards, carry required surety bonds, and maintain liability insurance. Failure to maintain this license can result in significant fines and the inability to legally collect payment for services rendered.
In addition to state requirements, contractors must navigate local Medford regulations. This includes obtaining a city-specific business license and securing permits for specialized tasks such as irrigation installation, electrical lighting, or structural work like retaining walls. Always verify project-specific permit needs with the Medford Building Safety Division before breaking ground to ensure full compliance with local zoning and safety ordinances.
