Recommendations for horse box (and driver..) hire

[TiaPony]

Ok, our box is having his skirting done and won't be ready for my rally on the 11th. Does anyone know of any good transporters round the Guildford,Surrey area that don't charge the earth, can reasonably take a fine 15.2 and a fairly chunky 15.3 a few miles down the road from bramely to merrist wood and are friendly with it? Unless any of you wanna volunteer

hint

all suggestions welcome
Thanks xx

99% sure his number is in the Guildford phone book, but will try and PM you it in the next day or two (I'm at work so can't get hold of it at the minute). Not sure re cost as we have only ever hired his big box to go to the beach!!! (but know he has a little box too). He is really friendly and I can garentee he will give the horses a good ride.

Go on to www.findhorsetransport.com

LEGAL and Registered horse transporters listed on there-also the self drive lorry companies listed.

Ensure if using a lorry and driver that they have an operators licence, defra licence-don't get taken for a ride!

Cheap usually means no licences! It costs quite a bit to keep a legal licenced lorry on the road nowadays and the driver hours are very strict so an all day show will require 2 drivers!
