Once an adoption commitment is made, the adopter has seven days of grace period to move the horse. A daily rate is charged for board beyond the grace period. The adopter is financially responsible for the transportation of the adopted horse.
The adopter must provide the shipper’s contact information and pickup date and time to the New Vocations facility where the horse is located. A New Vocations employee must be at the facility when the transport truck or adopter is scheduled to pick up the horse. The adopter is to notify New Vocations once the horse has arrived at the adopter’s facility.
PLEASE NOTE: Trailers must be at least 7 feet tall, be wide enough to fit the horse comfortably, have ventilation, be sturdy, in good condition and safe. New Vocations staff have the right to refuse loading the horse if the trailer is not safe or doesn’t meet the minimum height requirement.
PLEASE DO NOT USE U-SHIP! (www.uship.com) – we have had issues with mixed loads (horses loaded with equipment or other livestock), extremely long trips with too many stops and inexperienced drivers.
