In general, any person or business which transports property or people by any means of conveyance (truck, auto, taxi, bus, airplane, railroad, ship), almost always for a charge. the carrier is the transportation system and not the owner or operator of the system. there are two types of carriers: common carrier (in the regular business or a public utility of transportation) and a private carrier (a party not in the business, which agrees to make a delivery or carry a passenger in a specific instance). common carriers are regulated by states and by the interstate commerce commission if they cross state lines.
