Meridian makes storage and handling products for farmers, industrial companies, as well as for the oil, gas and mining sectors.

Meridian Manufacturing Inc. has six administrative staff in its Alberta and Saskatchewan operations.

The company's loads are almost all over-dimensional — exceeding standard weight and dimensions — so permits are required.

The different rules getting goods from one province to another can be challenging.

Every province has its own online permitting system, implementing a one -stop shop would be the dream,” says Beerling , vice-chair of the Alberta Motor Transport Association .

Beerling: “Some of those rules need to be looked at for fairness, effectiveness and efficiency of our trade.”.
