Self-drive or driven? Choosing in Borehamwood

The right choice depends on your licence, your confidence and how far you are going.

Self-drive suits you if…

  • You are travelling one or two horses
  • The trip is local or a show day
  • You are happy reversing a larger vehicle

Consider a driver if…

  • It is a long-distance journey
  • You need a larger box than your licence allows
  • Your horse needs extra attention on the way

Pricing: Prices depend on the box and the length of hire – see our services page for current day, weekend, weekly and long-term rates, or call for a quote.

Before you set off: a hire-day checklist

Run through these points at handover and you will be ready to go.

  • Check tyres, lights and mirrors at handover
  • Pack the passport, haynets and water
  • Bring your photocard licence
  • Return the box swept out and on time
  • Know the height and weight of the box before you go
  • Plan a route that avoids low bridges and narrow lanes
