Boxley History
100 years and still going strong. Boxley has been a key player in building the infrastructure of southwestern Virginia and surrounding areas.
Boxley participated in a joint community project by donating materials and employee time to rebuild the Hidden Valley batting cage facility.
When we built the new entrance to our Blue Ridge quarry, we paid close attention to our environment and community. That's why we constructed enormous protective berms and created attractive landscaping.
Boxley delivers concrete when our customers need it. It’s the Boxley way.
