Horse Trailers

Keeping your horses comfortable and safe on the road is easy with the help of the proper trailer. These can include a butt and breast bar to support the animal, insulation against outside noise and temperature changes, and so on. There are a few different sizes to consider, depending on how many animals you have.

First, there are smaller models. These provide the space for one to two horses, as well as a tack area to store your equipment. A bumper-pull style best fits with this trailer type.

Second, there are larger sizes. They are very long and bulky. Some can fit as many as ten horses in one go! A gooseneck hitch is a much more stable option and ideal for this trailer (especially if you are transporting more than two horses). With this option, you'll want an escape hatch as a safeguard for horses becoming unruly. You'll want to be able to remove one horse without disturbing the others.

Third, there is a live-in-style trailer. This provides the space for living quarters for you alongside your horse. If you travel out of town, this can be a great way to avoid paying for marked-up hotel fees. 
 

Livestock Trailers

As their name implies, stock trailers are meant to transport livestock. They are gooseneck or bumper-pull hitched trailer. They tend to be more affordable and versatile (they can transport anything from goats to cows). They implement an open-air design to provide good ventilation, but this comes at the cost of temperature control. If you want to use this to transport your horses, you'll need to be cautious of two things. 

First, stock trailers tend to be smaller and that can make your horses feel claustrophobic (which in turn increases the odds that they will get sick or injure themselves). Make sure the trailer you buy is big enough. Second, the lack of insulation from noise can hike up your horses' anxiety. These are best done for transporting over short distances because of that. If you plan on going on long trips, you may want to stick with looking at horse trailers instead.
