Getting old disgracefully
Probably best to phone a couple of local vets to get an idea.
Mine does castration clinics twice a year for yearlings and 2 Yr old with both down, where folk pre book and take them in for day surgery. Not many do that tho.
How old is yours?

Situation normal
April = the start of fly season. If you get it done now you may get away with it.
But for prices you’re better off getting a quote directly from your vet.

£350 for mine last year (mule yearling, laid down at home)
And then you can double that for his post-castration complications….
And potentially would have had to times it by 10 if he’d needed opening up to clean out the infracted tissue. My vet did nothing wrong…. It’s a procedure with a high risk of complications!

Rising 2 this year, he's quite cheeky though so unsure if they'll do him standing

I also have no transport to the vets so when they come out do they do it in the field or in stable?

I have never yet had one done standing and I have had a good many over the years. Vet has always dropped them in the field and got on with it. I always assisted where needed.

If you need potential costs if it's not straightforward I have details of those too
