Self Drive Horsebox Hire
Horsebox hire is growing ever more popular as it offers a cheaper option to owning your own box for those who only transport their horses occasionally or those who use a trailer for short distances but want comfort on longer journeys and stays.
We offer two vehicles for hire a 3.5T two horse (up to 17 hands depending on weight) Huish Trecker with tack area and a 7.5T Huish built Iveco three horse with day living and tack area.
The Trecker is ideal for attending one day shows or moving horses especially long distances due to its smooth ride for horses and great fuel economy. The 7.5ton Iveco is excellant for attending two or three day events or moving larger horses.
