Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Would a 4/5 pick up work. If so I have one spot left in our 4 horse trailer. We as well have another trip the week of 4/20. Let me know what you think. What budget do you have in mind. We are at.70 a mile where fuel is over $4 a gallon. Its getting hard! (3/31/2008)
Response: 4/20 would work best. My board is paid through April and I cannot get a refund for the remainder of the month. Also would need some time to get a health certificate done. I had another bid for $750, but I was hoping to stay closer to $700. (3/31/2008)
Response: Unfortuately until fuel prices go back down that will be very hard. We only transport 4 horses to give them individual attention with a direct route. As well there are so many other costs to consider. It even costs to use this site. I will try and go lower then $800, we should stay in touch. Premier Horse Transportation - Park City, UT (3/31/2008)
Question: Is there any chance your horse could be ready to go this weekend? If so we could give you a very reasonable fill in rate. You can check our feedback out on this site. Let me know. (3/31/2008)
Response: No, he could not be ready this weekend. His coggins and health certificate will not be ready until the 15th. (4/1/2008)
Question: Hello, we are based out of Elbert and are heading east the end of this month. Our dates are not exact yet, but will range between the 24th to the 26th. If you are flexible, we like to stay over in MO where we have horse facilities with family, so this would be 3 days from start to finish, p/up on one day, down day in MO, then deliver the 3rd day in TN. We would be more than happy to supply hay, or you can send along feed of your preferance. Our bid would be $600. Let me know if we can be of assistance or if you have any questions. CM (4/1/2008)
Response: Those dates work great and I would like to use your services. My horse is stabled just between Kiowa and Elizabeth about 2 miles from Hwy 86. Let me know I need to do to schedule this. Thank you, Judith Pugh (4/1/2008)
Response: Hello, thanks for the quick response! I will go ahead and submit a bid. Feel welcome to ask questions and I will do my best to get back to you in a timely manner. CM (4/1/2008)
Question: Hi, This is Paul Lynch with 4Rail Horse Transport out of Larchwood, Ia. I could pick your horse up Wedesday evening. It's a very nice trailer with Air Ride and your horse would get off the trailer at night to rest. Does your horse have a negitive coggins right now? (4/1/2008)
Response: No, his coggins will not be back from the lab till next Monday. Thank you for your bid. (4/2/2008)
Question: Hello Judith! I have some time frames for you. Would a pick up on April 29th, delivery on the 30th work for you? Maximize your board fees. :) We decided that would probably be the best scenario. Let me know what you think. If you liked the idea of him having a full days break out of the trailer, we could pick up on Monday the 28th. Otherwise, we'll still layover one night in MO w/private horse facilities. CM (4/3/2008)
Response: Either date would work fine, I will mark my calendar. He's very accustomed to travel. He has made this same trip 3 times and did great. I am assuming I need to accept your bid, but what is the procedure after? Thanks, Jody Pugh (4/3/2008)
Response: When you accept the bid you'll have to put down a deposit that uship collects. Then, we will have each others contact information and can go from there. As far as payment, and I'm not sure if you are in CO or TN, but if you could have the balance in cash when we drop him off, that would great. We can also take paypal or a money order if you prefer. When I pick him up, that is when I'll need all his paperwork. Also, do you have any tack or misc. stuff to go with him? It should't be a problem if you do, but we'll make sure there is plenty of room. (4/3/2008)
Response: I will put the deposit down tonight after I get off work. I'm in Colorado and I will be there when you pick him up so I will just give you the cash at pickup. No I do not have any tack or misc items to go with him, only a halter/lead rope and shipping boots. Thank You Again, Jody Pugh (4/3/2008)
Response: If you are comfortable with that, great! I will give you a reciept. I look forward to talking with you soon. CM (4/3/2008)
