What do you pay for this full livery?

[millreef]

Hi all
I’ve read some posts about rising costs in the UK and some discussions about grass livery but what would you say was a good price for the following?

Stable, shavings, mucked out daily, food (full livery).
Turnout into arena but no grass turnout.
Use of arena day and night (lights)

Not including - vets, wormer, farrier.
I don’t let anyone else ride my horse so not including any of that.

We have the use of a groom but he’s responsible for the whole row so too busy to give too much help.

I’d be very interested in your guesstimate.

Where are you? london would be totally different to the highlands to Dubai?

Depends whereabouts the yard is, proximity to competition centres. Where I used to live probably £800 a month but where I am now £525

I’m in Casablanca but I have a cost of living currency converter which is a good tool to compare.

Around here, about that would be 800pcm at a minimum if not £1k tho I appreciate you aren't over in the UK.
Would be very interested to see what you pay hho

If I convert it from dirhams it’s just shy of £200. But the cost of living here is less than the UK. It shocks me when I go back for a holiday to the UK.

Mine was exercised for me, but I was paying £900 in SE England for that.

I’d agree. I was quoted £175-£250 for schooling livery a while ago

Without turnout I think you’d still find that for £130/140 per week in uk as it would have limited draw

Good point. I hadn't spotted that bit. You'd need a lot of exercise to make up for only ever having turnout into an arena!

Mine is for the month- that’s £200 for the month. Full livery

Wow! Well under 50 a week inc bedding, hay, feed and chores?
Where on earth are you ?

Casablanca. It’s relatively inexpensive. I’m lucky.

I think it's 800-1k here that's without exercise too
Herts area

If there's no proper turn out I doubt anyone would pay anywhere near the £800 or more mentioned here .
