How Long to Ship
At Valley Horse Ranch, we understand how exciting it is to welcome your new horse home. Once you have found the right horse, our goal is to make the delivery process as smooth, safe, and stress-free as possible. From preparing your horse for travel to coordinating transportation, we take every step with care and attention.
Typical Timeline
We generally ask buyers to allow up to one week from the time of purchase to delivery. In many cases, transportation can be arranged within three to five business days, depending on your location, scheduling availability, and transportation arrangements.
Why Shipping Takes Time
Before your horse leaves Valley Horse Ranch, we complete several important preparation steps to help ensure their health, safety, and comfort during transportation. A veterinary health certificate is obtained when required, which can take several days to process. We also make sure each horse is properly prepared for travel, including hydration and digestive support, grooming, and placement in a clean, comfortable stall or paddock before departure.
Our goal is to have your horse leave the ranch well prepared and arrive at their new home healthy, comfortable, and ready to settle in.
Trusted Delivery Partners
We coordinate transportation through professional and experienced horse transport providers. Working with reliable transportation partners allows us to arrange safe and dependable delivery based on your location and individual needs.
Factors That Affect Shipping Time
Delivery times can vary depending on several factors, including the distance to your location, the number of horses being transported, transportation availability, your preferred delivery timeframe, and whether private or shared transportation is selected.
Our Commitment
At Valley Horse Ranch, we believe communication and careful planning are an important part of a successful horse purchase. We keep you informed throughout the transportation process and work to coordinate a safe, reliable, and efficient delivery option for your horse.
From our ranch to your home, we are committed to making your horse’s journey as comfortable and stress-free as possible, so you can focus on welcoming your new companion.
