How long to ship?
At Silver Trails Stables, we understand that once you’ve chosen your new horse, you’re eager to welcome them home. That’s why we work hard to make the shipping process as quick and stress-free as possible.
Typical Timeline
As a general rule, we ask for about one week from the time of purchase to delivery. In many cases, we are able to have your horse delivered within 3–5 business days, depending on your location and scheduling with our transport partners.
Why Shipping Takes Time
Before your horse leaves our facility, we complete a few important steps to ensure their safety and health:
-
A veterinary health certificate must be obtained (this can take several days).
-
Your horse is prepared for travel with Probios and electrolytes.
-
Each horse is groomed and moved to a private stall or paddock before departure.
These steps are part of our commitment to making sure your horse arrives happy, healthy, and ready to begin their new journey with you.
Delivery Partners
We work with professional, reliable transport companies we’ve partnered with many times in the past. This allows us to coordinate safe and efficient delivery tailored to your needs.
Factors That Affect Shipping Time
The exact delivery timeline may vary depending on:
-
The distance from our stable to your location
-
The number of horses being transported
-
Whether you request shared transport or private transport
-
The urgency of your delivery request
Our Promise
We always communicate with you throughout the process and do our best to find the fastest and most cost-effective shipping solution. Your new horse is carefully prepared and delivered with the highest level of care.
