Hauling
A general rule of thumb, we ask for one week to ship your horse. Many times we can get the horse to you within 3-5 days depending on where you live, but we’ve found that it’s much better not to raise expectations and have someone disappointed. We have professional transports, most of the companies we have worked with many times in the past. Prior to shipping we have a normal process to get your horse ready to ship. We have to obtain a health certificate from our vet, which can take a few days, before the horse can leave. During this time we prepare your horse for shipping with probios and electrolytes, it’s also moved to a private paddock or stall, and will be groomed before leaving.
Our transport cost usually ranges from $650 and above. It depends on a number of factors:
- how far you live;
- how many horses you want to be transported;
- ( If you purchase 3+ horses, we will ship them for free)
- how fast you want to transport your horse;
- do you wish to transport your horse alone.
According to your request we always try to find the best possible solution with our partners in order to transport the horse to your place
Only about 5% of our customers actually fly or drive in to try our horses before they buy them. Because we do guarantee our horses, most customers choose not to come here. Although we love it when customers come in, we have references all over the country that we are more than happy to let you talk to. We encourage customers who are close, or can, to come try the horses. Although we are very good at matching people with the right horses, it can help us to see and evaluate the rider’s skill level too.
