E Transport Carriers & Railport Services

What E Transport Carriers & Railport Services does

E Transport Carriers & Railport Services is a Jacksonville, Florida-based asset-light logistics provider and member company of The Evans Network of Companies. The firm operates two core service lines: truckload transportation using 48' and 53' van trailers across local, regional, and national routes, and intermodal drayage covering ocean import/export traffic, door-to-port, port-to-port, and inland container movements. Capacity is sourced from a nationwide network of owner operators and contracted drivers rather than company-owned equipment.

The company's go-to-market is built on a hybrid of direct shipper relationships and a freight-agent channel: the Agent Program supplies third-party agents with motor carrier and broker authority, insurance coverage, regulatory compliance, billing and settlements, collections, driver recruiting, and national sales support, allowing independent freight entrepreneurs to operate under the ENOC umbrella. Operations are supported by Highway, a third-party carrier vetting platform used to reduce onboarding fraud. Distribution is domestic US only, with headquarters at 4500 Salisbury Road, Suite 160, Jacksonville.

Revenue is generated on a transaction-fee basis through quote-based pricing for truckload and drayage services; rates are not publicly disclosed and vary by lane, freight type, volume, and service requirements. The firm is privately held as a subsidiary of The Evans Network of Companies, with no public funding or ownership disclosures.
