My horse has recently needed to be turned out in a round pen as part of his rehabilitation - I needed one for 5 months (he tends to walk through other fencing and HAD to be kept in a really limited area) so decided to invest in one. Now he is on less restricted turnout

and I no longer use the Round Pen.

Do you think there is a market for hiring my round pen out? if so, how much would you be prepared to pay, say per month?

I appreciatge I need to look into insurance and contracts etc - but am just trying to gauge whether there may be a demand.

Thanks

I am based in the South East - and the Round pen can be moved very easily - it takes me 20 mins on my own to move it from one location to another - much less if I have someone to help.
 
I think it would be very "hireable" and yes a month at a time seems reasonable. What about transporting it - is that a problem? Would this be down to the people hiring it, or would you deliver it and put it up? Are there any parts that could be lost (ie not sure what holds the panels together?)
 
I am 'between' horseboxes at the moment, but should be sorted by the end of Nov, so was thinking about delivering it and charging only for fuel costs. There are bolts that could be lost, but are easily obtainable, so it wouldn't be the end of the world - I guess I'd charge for any lost bits at a pre- agreed rate.
 
Hmm yes I think there is a market for it, having a youngster (and in the South East

) I'd be interested. I've built my own currently but it's a pain to move. Do you have any piccies of yours?
