Hub Security and Investigative Group provides trusted security in Medway, MA, pairing licensed guards with genuine local knowledge of the community.
Medway’s name reflects its historic position midway between Boston, Worcester, and Providence. First settled in 1657, the town later gave up its eastern half in 1885 to form the neighboring town of Millis, and the Medway Village Historic District still preserves more than 240 structures from its 19th-century mill economy along the Charles River.

How Hub Saves Medway 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 Medway, where the historic mill buildings along the Charles River sit close to residential neighborhoods — Hub can bundle coverage across both under a single route instead of billing each separately.
Medway’s own history is distinctive: its name reflects its historic position midway between Boston, Worcester, and Providence. First settled in 1657, the town later gave up its eastern half in 1885 to form the neighboring town of Millis, and the Medway Village Historic District still preserves more than 240 structures from its 19th-century mill economy along the Charles River. Hub’s licensed guards support both Medway’s historic mill district and its residential neighborhoods.
