RoadOne acquires northeast intermodal transport provider Jarvis Trans Inc.

Randolph, Massachusetts, March 6, 2018– RoadOne IntermodaLogistics, a leading single source intermodal, distribution, and logistics service company, announces its acquisition of Jarvis Trans Inc., an intermodal transportation company serving the greater New England region including Boston. Daily service is also offered from New York, New Jersey and Philadelphia to all Northeast points. Jarvis Trans has been in business for over 50 years.

The intermodal drayage sector has had to confront numerous issues over the past year including a shortage of qualified drivers; the effects of the implementation of the federally mandated Electronic Logging Device (ELD’s); port mandated clean trucks, as well as finding experienced operational staff.   “The acquisition of Jarvis Transportation allows RoadOne to address all of these issues. Jarvis’ management team of Peter Lawless and Eric Jones have decades of operational experience between them and are backed up with a talented staff. Jarvis’ drivers operating newer, clean trucks, that are already ELD complaint, will increase RoadOne’s capacity in the Northeast market. This is a great fit for both companies and we look forward to a bright future together,” said David McLaughlin, COO, RoadOne IntermodaLogistics.
