Tack Tavern was amazing!! I so enjoyed this experience and they did wonderful with my new filly! It was late and I was so excited to see my new little girl, that I never got the chance to tell them how grateful I was for the care they provided and the safe travel. They are curtious professional and so very kind and polite; they let me know when she was loaded and on her way and she arrived in perfect condition! Thank you Tack Tavern for the safe transport of Addy!
Response from TackTavern:
This is an absolutly stunning filly with wonderful people to work for on both pickup and delivery. Thank you for trusting us with this exceptonal little horse and good luck with her. Lorna Revord

The shipping transaction was quit easy and easy to follow. however there could have been better communication from Lorna as to when the pick up would take place,i had to pin down the pick up with several emails, i think she could have just notified me of the delays they were having I.E. weather and where in the country they were at to ease my mind . The communication after pick was Superb, Cindy and her team kept me posted all the way through out the transport, BO was well taken care. Thanks D.G
Response from TackTavern:
With one winter storm after another rolling into the east coast there was no way to give an exact date. The horse was in La. but had to get to MD.I did answer every call and email. I have 2 rigs on the road and as far as where we were was immaterial. Either rig could have taken this horse IF THE WEATHER cooperated. Thanks for this trip, I hope your daughter enjoys this horse.

Awesome! They went out of their way to make sure everything worked for us ... even when we asked them to delay delivery for 1 day due to some unforseen circumstances ... they were happy to rearrange their schedule to fit ours! I would recommend TackTavern to anyone and everyone who has animals that need to be moved with tender loving care! Thanks Lorna and crew for a job well done and much appreciated!

Lorna was AWESOME to work with I had a very good experience with them. I was hauling my 3 year old from South Carolina to Illinois and Lorna did right before the hurricane hit. I received updates everyday at least twice a day. I was not there when my horse was picked up but there was zero problems there and I was there to pick up my horse. Tank jumped right off the trailer and very calm and in excellent condition he didn't even look like he'd been hauling for about 14 hours. Great job
Response from TackTavern:
This colt is one of those horses that are worry free to haul and handle. I think he enjoyed the trip. Good luck with him, Sam. It was a pleasure to get this horse to you.

No Detailed Feedback Available A scheduling conflict arose that could not be resolved While there is no specific timeframe, I would like to transport this horse as soon as possible. Tack tavern will provide the transport, but is not available for approximately two weeks. Another shipper, Oldroknroller, indicated an ability to transport this weekend, but I was unable to contact since Tack Tavern had booked my transport by accepting my price. I have contacted Tack Tavern and she has been very helpful. She suggested canceling, to see if I can still get transport sooner than

Response from TackTavern:
Wrong phone#, wrong address ,none of the info was correct. finally found pickup address after 2 hrs.and the horse was still in the field with no one available to verify delivery add. or Phone #.I was not rude I just refused to wait any longer and would not put this horse on without a confirmed delivery contact name number or address. I never lied , I cancelled this haul due to owner giving wrong information and not being there at pickup location or having a rep. that knew anything about it.

No Detailed Feedback Available A scheduling conflict arose that could not be resolved The shipper called 16 hours prior to pick up, and stated she had not even departed the location she told me she was leaving several days before. She said she "didn't know when" my horse could get picked up. I told her I was very frustrated that #1- she hadn't even had the courtesy to return a call to inform me in advance, and #2- that we were clear upon scheduling that this was urgent. I WOULDN'T SHIP A BOX WITH HER.
Response from TackTavern:
We wre in TX TORNADOS, with no cell or internet. Thanks for careing!! I was on my way when this person stared yelling at me on the phone.I would have been 1 day late, not bad for dodgeing 5 tornados. I even offered to send hay to this horse for FREE. SHE DID NOT CARE ABOUT THE WEATHER WE WERE IN OR THE HORSES ON THE TRAILER ONLY HERSELF.I feel sorry for this horse, but I do agree on 1 thing , I would NEVER haul for someone as inconsiderate as you. Be careful of this one, you won`t be treated wel

No Detailed Feedback Available The Service Provider is not able to accommodate this shipment The provider did not say that they needed a test for Coggins for our horses before shipping them. We were unaware that this was needed. They told us upon arrival that they could not transport our horses, due to this issue, which they did not communicate would be an issue. We were uncomfortable as well, with the way the provider communicated with us, as it was rude and unprofessional.
Response from TackTavern:
This is not the way it happened. We never got to the pickup address I asked the horses caretaker by phone if their papers were in order , I was also asked to take down fence, transport hay , and other items I had not planned on and had no room for..and yes I did refuse to transport without coggins or health papers and I did agree to fence if I was paid, but this person played phone games by useing different names when I called and it started to sound very wierd. No way was I going there. SCAM?
