If you are new to buying a horsebox, or the time has come to replace an old one, then you want to make sure that you choose one that is worth the money and is going to do the job that you want it to do. Here are some of the things to consider to help you choose a horsebox that is suitable…
Brand New or Second Hand?
This is a personal choice and something that you need to weigh up. With a brand new horsebox, you are unlikely to have any problems but if you know what to look for, a second hand horsebox is a great way to get what you want for less.
If you are handy with your own repairs, you could buy one cheap and order trailer parts from somewhere like this autoandtrailer.com
Security of the Horse
You need to make sure that the horse is safe and secure whilst it is in transit, so make sure that the floor is strong and secure and that the size and shape is suited to the horse that will be transported.
Payload
Whenever you are towing something, you need to be aware of the maximum weight that can safely be towed in the trailer, so make sure that you check this.
