Shipping from Saskatoon to Ottawa

I’m looking to have a large Thoroughbred mare shipped from Saskatoon to Ottawa. The commercial shippers are having trouble filling their trailers so I’m wondering if she could hitch a ride on a private haul. Please let me know if you might have a spot.

I haven’t tried that one. I’ll look into it. Thanks!

I’m bumping this up because we didn’t manage to get the horse shipped before winter kicked in. Now we are trying again to get this mare shipped from Saskatoon to Ottawa. Most commercial shippers can’t fill a load since there are no horse shows in Ontario (we’re in Covid lockdown until the end of May). Does anybody know of someone who might have a spot on a private trailer? Otherwise I’ll be looking to rent a trailer and drive out to get her myself as soon as I’m allowed to leave the province.

If you are on Facebook, look up CW Equine. She’s heading west and back, end of the month.

Thanks for this. I looked up CW Equine and there are a few of them. I’m assuming you are referring to the one called “CW Equine Supplements”? The others don’t seem to be in Canada.

I assume you’ve tried Perrys? http://www.perryt.com/ They seem to be the most active during covid, they took my gelding from Calgary to Toronto in Sept 2020 :slight_smile:

Check on Facebook Groups, “Horses Hauling Canada” comes to mind but I think there’s more. These should have more of the smaller transport companies. I did a quick browse just now & it definitely looks like people are making the trip across still.

Thanks, everyone!

Another vote for Perrys - my barn used them all the time, and always had a good experience.
