About Us

Hardrives, Inc. was founded by George Elmore in 1953 in Delray Beach, Florida. Sparsely populated Palm Beach County had no I-95, no Florida Turnpike, and no major transportation route beyond U.S. Hwy 1. Mr. Elmore’s personal philosophy, “No client or employee is to be cheated or mistreated” served to guide his first contract, paving a driveway for $125. Adhering to this philosophy for success, Hardrives, Inc. has helped build Palm Beach County and continues to contract with dozens of municipalities and nearly every major developer in the county. From a single driveway to multi-million dollar highways, Hardrives, Inc. has grown, along with Palm Beach County, to achieve every goal that is presented. Our biggest measure of success is the clients that return, year after year, with new and more challenging projects.
