Which equine rescue company? Also AA or RAC?

Having had 2 blow outs on the trailer last night and not getting back to the yard until 12:30am

I need to rejoin!!

My own lazy fault we didn't have cover, I used to be with ESS but they went bust and were taken over by another company Equine Rescue I think they are called. My membership ran out and I just forgot to renew it as I didn't get a renewal notice! ... big mistake, cost over £125 last night to get a tyre company out to replace the wheel and tyre, we had already used the spare on the first blow out!!

So who do you use and how good are they?
Its such a shame ESS aren't around any more as every time I had to use them they were absolutely brilliant!!

Also which car rescue people do you use and who do you find the quickest and most helpful!

My recovery/roadside assistance is part of my lorry insurance package supplied by Anthony D Evans. The premiums are very reasonable & the service is good. Many people on this forum are insure with this company:

I get as part of my insurance for NFU, who are fab. My box broken down at the vets 200 miles away. They sent a horse box to pick up me and Kai and a recovery vheichle to bring the horse box back home. They had a very expensive day that day as they we paying for my mares treatment that day!!!

Thanks guys but I have a 4x4 and trailer, I don't think the insurance NFU do that cover for trailers!! I will check though....

Is it a good enough excuse to get a lorry??!!!

Do Anthony Evans 'rescue' the horse as well, as in will they send a lorry to get your horse home if they can't fix the breakdown at the roadside?
Thanks

I use Equine Rescue Services and they are great!

It costs me £264 for their Traveller Plus cover, but it's well worth it.

I use both the AA and the RAC for my car rescue - they both offer different services, so I get all round cover. It also helps if one will take too long to get to me lol.
