About Us
Baumhardt Sand & Gravel Inc. was started by Joseph Baumhardt with two five-yard dump trucks, and it has been serving Eden, WI, and the surrounding areas since 1948. Through quality workmanship, attention to detail, and prompt service, BS&G has built a solid reputation for customer satisfaction that focuses on building Wisconsin for the next generation.
Today, Baumhardt Sand & Gravel Inc. is still family owned by James Baumhardt . Along with his family, and an incredible team, their mission is to provide their customers with professional, courteous service and quality workmanship.
Our Growth
James and his brother John started J & J Baumhardt Trucking Inc. 1979 and J & J Baumhardt Aggregates Inc. in 1990. Today, both companies are owned and operated by James and his sons, Tim, Jeff, Brian Baumhardt. Although John has stepped aside as an owner, he is still an asset to the companies.
In 2011 J&J Baumhardt Trucking Inc. expanded to central Wisconsin. A terminal with 15 tractors & 15 High volume live bottom trailers were set up in Plover, WI, for the primary purpose of hauling coal. These tractor/trailer combinations can haul 25 tons or 59.0 cu.yds (water level) and are ideal for just about any aggregate, coal, salt, lime, or agricultural product.
In 2013 J&J Baumhardt acquired Abel Landscaping's snowplowing division. The acquisition brings together over 75 years of combined experience and nearly doubled the snowplowing equipment, taking it from 25 units to 45 units.
Also in 2013, the property across the street from the original location was purchased for a new headquarters with much-needed office, shop, and yard space for the ever-expanding assortment of equipment.
With the apparent need for more space again and that a presence in Fond du Lac was also needed, the former Fond du Lac County Garage property at 301 Dixie was purchased in 2019.
