I have just used LOC International to transport my horse from the UK to California and I would highly recommend them. They were the most competitively priced, got back to me the quickest and they have kept in touch with me every step of the way. They are a UK company but they have agents all over Europe and the World . http://www.locltd.com/
My horse arrives this afternoon in France, carried by John Parkers.
For me,the availability of a quicker pick up was a factor.
The drivers have kept us fully updated, we have used this company before,
I used Parkers to bring my horse from Spain to UK; competitive, price and my horse arrived happy and well. They do regular trips to Portugal, Spain and France.
Another recommendation for Parkers from me too, they've transported twice for me and been great both times. I've also heard very good things about LOC - I'd certainly use one of those two.
Thanks. I have contacted 5 companies, including Parkers, for quotes and so far only one (LOC) has bothered to get back to me. It's a good price too. I guess the others are doing so well they don't need my money
Locs were quick to get back to me too. Give John Parker a ring and ask to speak to him, if I were you.
Very pleased with the handling of my 3 yr old, who had never set foot on any transport until they collected her this week.
All the best whatever you choose
