subject: How To Transport Livestock [print this page]

There are several important factors in preparing to ship livestock,

not the least of which is ensuring that they arrive at their

destination healthy and alive. Needless to say, youll also want

them to be delivered as quickly and inexpensively as possible.

Here are some important factors to consider, as well as important

questions to ask before choosing a transport provider:

Tips on How to Transport Livestock

* Reducing stress is of major importance in the delivery of healthy

animals. The truck or trailer should have non-slip floors to

reduce the chances of the animal being injured or injuring other

animals.

* Ask about how the container is temperature controlled to reduce

the risk of animals overheating.

* Adequate food and water must be provided.

* Does the transporter provide adequate ventilation, especially if

there are numerous animals to be transported?

* Does the driver have insurance and what procedures are in place in

case of an accident on the road?

* What is the level of prior experience with transporting livestock?

* Is the truck or trailer insulated against not only inclement

weather but what about excessive noise? Almost all animals will

experience some level of stress when being transported but some

are more sensitive to excessive noise than others.

* Will you need to provide certificates or other important

paperwork? You should also check if the truck has the necessary

permits to transport livestock.
