RE: [RC] professional horse transporters - ll cole
There's a place for all parties involved here.
Linda and I drove for a professional horse hauler, Blue Ribbon Horse Vans, back in the 80s. He had top-of-the-line equipment and only hired experienced horse people to drive his trucks. You got the quality service you expected and paid for!!
On the other side, we've hauled horses for friends once or twice in our own trailer to help cover fuel costs or to help move a rescue horse to better conditions and have had friends haul our horses occasionally. If I can help out someone I know by letting them haul my horses to help them with their expenses, I understand the risks and I'm more than willing to help a friend.
There's plenty of horses to be moved, just be careful.

FYI, we are NOT a family looking to "go in the business" of horse hauling!
We are hauling 2, and possibly 3 of our personal horses to the west coast and have 1 possibly coming back for Bill to condition for endurance. We would have 2 emply slots on the return trip.
Thats all there is to it.
Bill has been active in AERC endurance riding for over 20 years and many of you out there know him.

I am writing tonight to discuss a problem that professional horse transporters are having....this is in response to a message posted tonight from a family that has decided to haul horses "for gas money" and posted a message on this network. I asked them for their US DOT and FMCSA MC.ICC numbers and their insurance info. The response that I received was that I was being rude in asking and Pro haulers were expensive...below is my response to her.
