MILLIS, MA — Millis was once home to the Clicquot Club Company, a pioneering soft-drink maker and one of the first bottlers of canned soda in the country. The town’s Millis Center Historic District preserves its 19th-century village core, and Richardson’s Tavern, built around 1720, is said to have hosted George Washington for lunch on his way to Cambridge in 1775.

How Hub Saves Millis 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 Millis, where the historic village core sits close to residential neighborhoods — Hub can bundle coverage across both under a single route instead of billing each separately.
Millis’s own history has a few surprising chapters: the town was once home to the Clicquot Club Company, a pioneering soft-drink maker and one of the first bottlers of canned soda in the country. The town’s Millis Center Historic District preserves its 19th-century village core, and Richardson’s Tavern, built around 1720, is said to have hosted George Washington for lunch on his way to Cambridge in 1775. Hub’s licensed guards support both Millis’s historic village center and its residential neighborhoods.
