About Avtar Freightways
Drayage is a promise business
We're the carrier shippers call when missed windows have already cost them money — and the one they keep after the first clean month.
A container only earns money while it's moving.
Founded in 2020, Avtar Freightways Inc. is a drayage and trucking company based in Concord, California — where Highway 4 meets I-680, a predictable run from every Port of Oakland terminal and Northern California rail ramp. We also run a secured yard in Oakland for staging and quick turns close to the terminals.
Port trucking has a reputation problem: missed appointments, silent dispatchers, surprise invoices. We built Avtar Freightways to be the opposite of that. TWIC-certified drivers who know every terminal's quirks. Equipment that's tracked, logged, and maintained. And every load moves under the direct oversight of Jason Judge, Director — not a call center.
Importers, exporters, freight forwarders, and fellow carriers use us for the same reason: the freight lands where it should, when it should, with paperwork that closes clean.
01How we operate
Four rules we don't bend
Show up. Every time.
Appointments are promises. Our drivers make their windows, and dispatch tells you the truth when anything threatens one.
Safety before speed
GPS monitoring, electronic logging, and a maintained fleet. We move fast by never having to stop for preventable problems.
Straight answers
Real quotes, honest ETAs, clean invoices. If something goes sideways at the terminal, you hear it from us first.
Around the clock
Vessels berth at midnight and ramps cut off at dawn. Dispatch answers 24/7, because that's when drayage actually happens.
02Compliance file
Credentials, on the record
The boring paperwork that keeps freight moving — held current, shown on request.
Ready when you are — 24/7
Have a container on the water?
Send the details before it hits the port. We'll have a truck, a chassis, and a plan waiting at the terminal.
