Everything about large horse trucks

A horse truck, also known as a horsetruck, is the ideal solution for riders and stables who want to transport their horses safely, comfortably and professionally. Compared to a trailer or compact horsebox, a horse truck offers more space, stability and extensive customization options. It represents a significant investment, where not only the budget but also safety, ease of use and the wellbeing of your horses play an important role.

At Uwpaardenwagen.nl, we understand that this is not a decision to be taken lightly. That is why we guide you with personal and expert advice throughout every step of the purchasing process. On this page, you will find everything you need to know about horse trucks: from different types and licence requirements to purchasing, maintenance and well-known brands such as Krismar. We also refer you to our current stock and practical tips to help you make a well-informed decision.

What is a large horse truck?

A horse truck is a specially built truck designed for transporting horses. These vehicles are larger than standard horseboxes and are often equipped with multiple horse stalls, a tack room or even a fully equipped living area for riders.

Key features of a horse truck:

• Space for multiple horses (usually 3 to 8)
• More stability and comfort on longer journeys
• Increased storage and usage options
• Typically requires a C1 or C driving licence

When should you choose a large horse truck?

Horse trucks are particularly suitable for professional and intensive use. They are widely used by professional stables, riders and instructors, as well as breeders and specialized transport services. Thanks to their spacious layout and stable driving characteristics, they are ideal for transporting multiple horses, both for short trips and long-distance travel.

In addition, horse trucks offer extra comfort and peace of mind during transport, making them highly suitable for competitions both nationally and internationally. Riders who value convenience, safety and luxury increasingly choose a horsetruck.
