Tax Implications When Importing Horses From Eire

He’s being transferred at Gordano now where family will collect him. George Mullins are unable to take him further but offered to arrange transfer but no need. £100 off the bill too.

Gordano will be fine, nice big car park and separate lorry park.

Gordano is good. I’ve often met clients there when selling Connemaras down to the West Country….nice big lorry park but it does get busy towards evening. Having said that all the lorry drivers have been very good when we’re loading up (especially as lots of mine are 3 yr olds). Even had a nice police officer, who was in there one evening, who made them all wait when we swapped lorries!

Thank you Annagain. That is so helpful. I’ll defo relocate pick up to one of your recommendations. It will be at sparrow’s cough following an overnight sailing so a transfer point with 24 hour access is required but I do want him to have a couple of turns round the lorry park before his onward travel.

Godano services which is just off the m5 bristol.

It has a massive car park accessible for lorries and is dead up until around 7am.
Don't forget most transporters are experienced in these sort of transitions and generally know what's best.

Bridgwater is small but again depending on times not an issue
Simple question to the transport company.....are your drivers aware of the services..?
