Holly Hill was one outfit recommended here when I asked about pros for a MN to CT haul, and I just have to say that they were PHENOMENAL. Huge kudos to them, and highly recommended if they service your route.
Not only was Charlie super prompt with his replies, we were able to shift the date when we couldn’t make the house movers fit in. Erika in the office was really friendly and happy to answer any questions, or track down stuff she didn’t know. Chris, one of the drivers, was right there on the communication front. Both drivers were great with the horses.
Horses loaded and traveled great–video in the rig, so they were watched the whole time–and walked off without a hair out of place. They also brought our tractor, spreader, and various tractor attachments.
The rig actually arrived early which I think is a first in the history of horse shipping. We did have the whole van and they went door to door, but still. Wow. (Arrival time was communicated, so no surprises, just moved up a bit from the previous conversation the night before.)
These are just really top notch guys and great horsemen willing to go the extra mile with a smile on their face. Don’t think you can do better if you’ve got to ship. They’re based in Mass, make regular FL and KY runs, but do go west–not sure how far, but at least to MN.
Really, nothing but positive things to say. It could not have gone any better.
