Who We Are

With over 40 years of previous trucking experience, Marlowe Smith decided to start his own business as an owner operator in 1998, forming the company Marlowe Smith Trucking Ltd today.

In 1999, Marlowe added a second truck and several trailers, operating out of West Lethbridge for 10 years before expanding his company further.

In addition to the new facility and equipment, Marlowe had to hire support staff to assist with his fast growing company, including a sales representative, dispatcher, office manager, mechanic, shop labourer, and safety supervicor. With the help of his experienced and knowledgable staff we have opened opportunities for brokered loads and over sea shipments. Have peace of mind knowing that we can handle all import and export documents as well as permitting and piloting solutions.

We at Marlowe Smith Trucking Ltd are committed to providing the best possible service to our customers as your business is vital for our growth and development!

Expansion

In 2010, Marlowe purchased a piece of land in Coaldale, Alberta. This property has an office, a large shop, and approximately 10 acres of land. This gave him room he needed to expand his growing company and house his current lineup of trucks, trailers, pilot trucks, and other miscellaneous equipment including a skid steer and telehandler.

The new facility, with a 2 level loading dock, allows us to load containers and assist you with all your international shipments, cross docking, and storage.

We have grown from one man and his truck to a one stop shop. No matter the size, no matter the location, we handle it all. We look forward to the opportunity to help you enhance your operations. Drop by when you’re in town, or give us a call.

Experience

Marlowe has been active in the trucking industry since 1981. Having driven highway haul and working in freight sales and dispatch – his experience, industry knowledge, and energy make him well equipped to assist with all of your trucking needs.

Starting Marlowe Smith Trucking Ltd in 1999 was a natural step for Marlowe, given his strong work ethic and attention to detail. Since incorporation, he has continually built and developed a steadily growing customer base and believes that honesty and integrity are the keys to success.
