How Hub Saves Hopkinton Customers Money
Consolidating under one Hub contract also tends to cost less than piecing together separate vendors for guards, patrol, and investigative work: one onboarding process instead of several, no coverage gaps that force you to pay a second vendor’s overtime rate to fill them, and one predictable monthly invoice instead of surprise call-out fees. That matters in Hopkinton, where corporate campuses like Dell EMC’s headquarters sit close to historic residential neighborhoods — Hub can bundle commercial coverage with residential checks nearby under a single route instead of billing each separately, and can also staff the extra foot traffic and road closures that come with Marathon Monday each spring.
Hopkinton’s own claim to fame is unmatched: every April, the world’s attention turns to Hopkinton as runners gather at the Boston Marathon’s official starting line, a role the town has held since 1924. Hopkinton is also the corporate headquarters of Dell EMC, and its 215 properties listed in the State Register of Historic Places reflect a town incorporated all the way back in 1715. Hub’s licensed guards support both Hopkinton’s corporate campuses and its historic neighborhoods.
