George, a lovely Highland C**t transported from Derby to Preston today. Travelled well after checking all the possible exit routes and finding there was no way out. He settled quickly and decided to eat instead. fans

I had a little moan the other day about deposits for booking transport. Here’s another bit of info - when you book transport here we ask these specific questions:

We always ask the AGE / TYPE / SIZE hh) of the horse / pony. These simple questions allow us to decide the following:

If we can transport the horse, 18+hh Clydsdales and full up Suffolk Punches don’t travel well on little boxes!!

If it’s safe to transport the horse, some types of young horses can be big and powerful and when frightened they can cause a lot of damage. They are better off and safer in a bigger box. Some older horses and those with health conditions often travel better in bigger boxes. Small boxes can be closterphinic especially for those horses with breathing issues.

What equipment we will need for the transport, lunge lines, feed, hay, straw, shaving’s, headcollars, ropes all these things should be on the box but we have to have the right items for all the different horses / ponies.

Manpower, some horses need an extra pair of hands, difficult loaders and travellers, young inexperienced horses, foals, mares and foals. All these need more than one pair of hands.

These questions and our years of experience also allow us to predict what likely issues may arise from transporting the horse / pony and allow us to plan for any such eventualities.

All that from 3 simple questions. That’s why we
ask because it gives is 99% of the information we need to know. 👍👍😀😀 fans

Lovely Palomino filly foal transported from Milton Keynes to Lancashire today.

The box that started it all.  This box travelled all over the UK and IOM for over 4 years and was a solid work horse.

Carol@PHT preparing the box for tomorrow’s Warmblood Foal. We prefer to use the established traditional deep straw bed with all foal movements where possible, especially for those foals with long finer legs. It provides more comfort if the foal does lay down and if the foal should trip or fall there’s a cushion effect that you just don’t get with shavings and sawdust.

We have moved mini Shetlands on shavings before but that’s because in one of Carol’s deep straw beds you’d struggle to find the Shetland again. 😜 😂 fans

Just a friendly reminder, if I ask for a deposit to confirm transport I require it paying in a timely manner preferably within 24 hours as while i'm holding that slot for you I am turning other work away. If I think the deposit is not forthcoming then I may just accept a different job and take their deposit instead and you'll loose your slot.

I try to avoid this but I can't indefinitely hold slots for you when others are wanting to use our services and prepared to pay a deposit as requested..

Your transport is NOT BOOKED until the deposit is received. If I take another job I have NOT cancelled you, I have NOT let you down, I have NOT taken a better paying job, YOU have not booked YOUR transport because YOU have not paid YOUR deposit.

(If you have not been asked to provide a deposit - this statement does not apply to you).

Thank you Paul@PHT

Little yard move today Preston - South Lakes. Weather, what weather! No seriously it’s not nice out there on the roads today. We did a risk assessment checked with pickup and drop off locations that there was access and we would be able to complete the job safely. No snow or ice when we arrived just lots of cold rain. fans

Happy 44th birthday to Paul @ Preston Horse Transport you’ve come a long way in your 44yrs travelled the world and done a lot of crazy things - some good, some bad. However you’ve always done things your own way and how you wanted and that’s what gets you through life - grit - sweat - determination and pure bloody arrogance when called for 😆. Happy Birthday from the PHT Team. 🎂🎁 🎉 fans
