Hauling
As a general guideline, we ask buyers to allow up to one week for shipping arrangements. In many cases, we are able to deliver horses within three to five business days depending on location. However, we prefer to set realistic expectations to ensure a smooth and stress-free experience for everyone involved. We work exclusively with professional and reliable transporters, many of whom we have partnered with for years.
Before shipping, we follow a consistent preparation process to ensure each horse travels comfortably and safely. A health certificate is obtained from our veterinarian, which may take several days to complete. During this time, horses are supported with Probios and electrolytes and are moved to a private paddock or stall. Each horse is thoroughly groomed and prepared prior to departure.
Transport costs typically start at $650 and may vary based on several factors:
- Distance to the delivery location
- Number of horses being transported
(Complimentary shipping is available when purchasing three or more horses) - Desired delivery timeframe
- Preference for private or individual transport
Sun Stone Stables works closely with trusted transport partners to find the most efficient and suitable shipping solution based on each buyer’s needs.
Only a small percentage of our customers choose to visit in person before purchasing. Because we stand behind our horses and offer a guarantee, many buyers feel confident moving forward remotely. While we always welcome and encourage in-person visits when possible, we are also happy to provide references nationwide. For those who are able to visit, trying a horse in person can be helpful for both the buyer and our team, allowing us to better evaluate rider compatibility and ensure the best possible match.
