Anyone on the lookout for a glamping lorry, guest room, or an alternative to a static caravan whilst they build, develop, or renovate a property. Then we are selling our old lorry for this purpose. Vic would make a fantastic glamper / guest room on any rural property or a fab and spacious place to stay whilst doing a building / renovation project. The nice thing about a horsebox as opposed to a static caravan is the overall look and appearance of it in situe. Any questions please ask. Vic is currently SORN'd. We are looking for £3000. Please see the video attached, and I will upload some pictures in the comments.

Here we have another video explaining what to look for in the non ramp wall, this is normally the off side wall however on some makes and models it can be the near side, to make sure you have some structure in place to ensure safety for the horses.
This also applies to larger lorries especially along the wall where the horses bum sits.
We are running our reduced rate Saturdays throughout February and March at our place in Benenden, Kent. Bring your 3.5t up to 6.5t lorries in for a full safety inspection for £75 including a written report. These can be booked in by messaging Kate via our page messenger.
We maybe able to to offer some limited Sunday dates if Saturdays are not an option but please message to find out what Sunday availability we have.
We can also arrange reduced rate yard visits if you can get 5 or more boxes of any size to check in the same place on the same day, please contact me for further info on this.
Another little video looking at servicing and maintenance essentials for 3.5t boxes. This one shows you how to listen out for a wheel bearing noise.
Here we have the first in a line of little information videos to help people look over and check their own horseboxes. This one tells you what to look out for on the floor in the horse area to check if it is starting to go soft in places.
Hi All, we hope you've all had a wonderful festive time and are looking forward to 2024. This is a little video explaining a few important things from some issues that have arisen over the last couple of weeks.
Hi everyone, we haven't posted a video for ages, so thought it was about time we did! This is the first in a series talking about what we call, a generic ramp, that are very often seen on the little 3.5t box style horseboxes. Please excuse the amount of 'erm's' in the video, this is what happens when the husband decides to do a video without any prior planning 🤣🤣🤣
Watch out for the next videos to see the progress

So today we have a video regarding the safety of the bulkhead between the drivers cab and the horse area. This is one of the most important areas that needs to be constructed correctly and protects the human passengers from the equine ones! This box was converted in 2019 and had covered very few miles when this issue was uncovered. Again we cannot stress enough how important it is to get a pre purchase inspection done on any horsebox - even a newly converted one and how important it is to do your research into the companies building them. Any decent manufacturer should be more than happy to give you insights into how their builds are constructed and welcome independent inspections.
A finished 3.5t now structurally sound and the importance of checking your gas locker cupboards
Here we have and update on the little silver 3.5t box all ready for its owner to collect. Please remember that although Wayne states it will be good for another 5 -10 years this is assuming the the floor gets checked regularly. We recommend yearly safety checks or at the very least every other year. You will also find some information on the second half of the video about the dangers of gas lockers.
The structure that should be there
Here is an update on the little silver lorry plus some info on what we do when making a lorry from scratch. This is also similar to how we fix up these little boxes to make them safe for both the horse and the driver
Hidden decay.
Part 2 of the little lorry that has a very hidden agenda.
An update on our little boy blue 3.5t van conversion
A little video showing the start of a conversion of a 3.5t Vauxhall Movano van, watch out for more videos and pictures in the coming weeks
Another video showing the possible dangers hidden underneath a 3.5t lorry. This is another well known make, they are simply not reinforced well enough to carry 1/2 ton of animal especially if it decides to have a moment. We have done this job on various makes and models now, sadly it’s not exclusive to a particular company and seems to be found across the board.
This is the 4th and final part of the series of video's on the little 3.5t box. Sorry about the wind noise!
Look out for more information videos coming soon.
A Solution to the problem
In this part 3 you see what we have done to not only repair the box but make it stronger and safer for the horses whilst keeping weight to a minimum something that is so important in these little 3.5T horseboxes.
