Just wondering what the costs of
Full livery (turn out, muck out, groom)
Shavings
Hay
Farrier
are in various locations due to job hunting, obviously yards vary but need floodlight all year arena and preferably some off road hacking.

Thanks x
 
We are down the A12 a bit from the Suffolk/Norfolk border, but that livery is £325 p/month incl. hay and shavings (and hard feed too).

Hay varies from £2.50 - 3.50 for small baled hay, last winter we were paying £3.50 for v. good hay. Heston bales are £30 for reasonable hay. Shavings vary from £7 to £9 inc. Vat.

Farrier is £65 for new, £60 refits.

I think livery costs decrease slightly as you head further towards Norfolk, however it will obv. vary a bit depending upon the yard

I pay £7 for a bale of shavings providing I buy 2 pallets,£2.50 a bale for hay ,£48 for full set of shoes but this is reduced rate as he does 24 horses on my yard his normal price is £60. Im diy and pay £25 a week with turnout inc plus use of out door,floodlit school,small indoor and jumps but can only use outside of lesson times - im in kent btw

I'm on the West Sussex/Surrey boarder and around here full livery can vary from £450-800 per calender month, although if you aren't wanting riding or exercising then you may be able to get part-livery.

DIY livery in Sussex/Surrey is on average between £25-35 a week. I pay £87 per calender month for DIY - including all year turn-out in small groups, large stable, use of indoor school and schooling fields and jumps.

Straw is on average £10 a bale and I'm currently paying £35 for a large bale of hay.

Farrier's vary from around £60-75 for a full set of shoes, although I pay £25 for a trim.

Shavings - vary from about £6.50-£9, although our lcoal feed merchant is selling their own brand for £6 at the moment.
