Trucking & logistics in Texas

1,141 for-hire carriers with three to fifty power units based in Texas, straight from the federal census file: trucks, drivers, authority and safety rating are on every page.

Carriers sell around 3.00x owner earnings. Under five trucks is an owner-operator with no enterprise value; over twenty-five has an M&A adviser already. The five-to-twenty-five fleet is the small-business deal, and it's an asset sale: the trucks are the price floor.
