Eerland

Houseflag of Eerland (A Smit International Company).
Diagonal triband black-white-black with a black "E" centered.

Eerland. The flag of Gerrit J. Eerland LCM Zoon B. V. Sleepdienst & Transportonderneming is green and white, not black and white although the company  website is not clear and the error is understandable. The letter though is black and the correct version can be seen on Josef  Nüsse's site. Brown 1995, show the correct colours but have the flag bands sloping the other way.

EIRAM III

N.V. Maatschappij EIRAM III, Rotterdam - blue with thin red St. Andrew's cross; in the center a white disk border red, charged with red letter E.

Eurobulk

Jan Mertens reported this link with mainly Dutch houseflags. Eurobulk - Horizontal Orange - white - orange, charged with a lot of items. The top reads: transport and management company. (This is a table-flag, presented on that site, see below).

Eurobulk - simplified

As far as I know the real "live" flag doesn't read anything on the top orange stripe. The (somewhat more detailed) black object within the O should represent the bow of a Rhine bulk barge.

Euro Rijn

From this website, spotted by Dov Gutterman:
Euro Rijn B.V. is a company based in Moerdijk, Noord-Brabant, with subsidiary in Dortmond, Duitsland, specialised in inland shipping.
Flag: yellow with a bright blue hoist with EURO in white in a vertical row, shifted a bit to the fly; after the R a horizontal short bright blue stripe charged with white letters "IJN". In the fly a black anchor with a blue rope tangled around it.
