(This was a quote from her insurers, not us)
As a local transport company we attend a lot of breakdowns where owners assume they have breakdown cover for their horsebox and that this includes the recovery of their horse(S) and are disappointed to find out it dose not. It is a good idea to check this and if the cover is lacking to make alternative arrangements in advance. Luckily for our local rider she gave us a call and we were able to take a hire horsebox to her yard for her father to drive to recover her horse and she was even able to attend her event and return the box the next day after a well deserved rest after what must have been a very stressful situation… and for just 80 Pounds +VAT quite a saving on the original quote! Robertson Horse Transport also offer a driven recovery service, with prices starting from 70 pounds +VAT please keep our number in your horsebox if you are travelling in the Yorkshire/ Lincolnshire / Derbyshire or midlands area 07920875145 This blog is the property of Robertson Horse Transport Robertson horse transport transported the legendary Top Gun to Robertson horse trainings’ demo held by the BHS. As a result we got a chance to show off the new Horseboxes for hire… a lot of interest was shown and dates for the summer are booking up fast. Robertson Horse Transport specializes in 3.5 ton horsebox hire, these horseboxes can be driven on a normal car license and are easy to drive and maneuver. We also offer a driven service and nationwide shared loads, which often work out more cost effective than transporting your horse yourself.

(Guy Robertson runs Robertson horse training) This blog is the property of Robertson Horse Transport Open Day For the first time EVER I have convinced Sarah to throw open the gates, to the public, of her beloved yard at Glebe Farm Equestrian Centre so that folk get the chance to look round the new horseboxes for hire… and to have a cuppa too of course! I think she is quite excited to hear what you are all up to with your horses and to show off our colt “Magicality” (see our blog – Diary of a paint horse – just a bit of fun as we are as horse mad as most) The Open Day for Robertson Horse Transport will be held at Glebe Farm Trumfleet Lane, Moss, Doncaster DN6 0DW On 25th February 2012, 11am – 2pm Drop in whenever you like for a cuppa and a look around the Horseboxes We are putting together some offers for anyone who is interested in booking on the day but we are more than happy if you just want to have a look!  The horseboxes have arrived and we are thrilled with them. They are seriously roomy and can take a tall horse with plenty of room.
We already have people booking in to hire the horseboxes for the 2012 show season (so it’s a good job we ordered 2 horseboxes for the hire side) Dates are booking up fast so please book in early to avoid disappointment. We received a phonecall this morning from Alexanders Prestige Horseboxes informing us that the 2 new 3.5 tonne, 2 horse, horseboxes are ready for collection. this will bring our little fleet up to 3 horseboxes for horse transport and 2 for horsebox / self drive hire.
Many of you have booked into hire from us for the current 2012 season and dates are going fast! We are very much looking forward to handing the keys over to you and we invite your feedback and photographs of your horses and our horseboxes at events and riding days out. | AuthorThe Author of this blog is Robertson Horse Transport - James Robertson ArchivesOctober 2012 CategoriesAll |
