Boston Sand & Gravel Company is a recognized leader in the New England Ready Mixed Concrete and Aggregate industry. They take pride in providing quality products and excellent service to their customers in the most demanding construction projects throughout the region, including the Central Artery/Tunnel project, waste water treatment plants, nuclear power plants, high rise-buildings and slurry wall construction.

With a fleet of mixer trucks, state-of-the-art dispatch and GPS system, well-coordinated shipping and service capability, and network of ready mix plants in eastern Massachusetts, the BS&G team are able to service jobs of any size, from small residential pours to mass pours for commercial and infrastructure projects.

BS&G is not only located in Charlestown, but their aggregate facilities in southern New Hampshire produce and distribute sand and stone products from quarries in Hooksett, NH, and Ossipee, NH, to regional markets by truck and from Ossipee to the Boston market by their short line railroad that connects with Pan Am Railways. This allows efficient and dependable sand and gravel transport from the Ossipee, NH, facility to their metro Boston location. Their railroad also provides freight service to customers, hauling bulk goods such as steel and liquefied propane tanks.
