Title: Help moving a pig from Salisbury to wales
Post by: Roryboy on May 07, 2021, 05:48:47 pm

I need to move my disabled 12 yr kune kune pig from  a garden with awkward access to his new home in wales. Basically I would need 3 strong men, to lift him using a HD TARP  or canvas from the garden up a knee height step into the horse box or trailer, drive him 4 hrs to Wales then unload him into his enclosure. Can any one help me or advise me of any contacts who might be able to assist me? Time frame is next three months as sale of house just going through.

Look up the Livestock Hauliers Forum on Facebook, and post your requirements. There are some very helpful people on there.

I moved from Salisbury to Wales  :)

Guessing you don’t know anyone you can ask? If you get help loaded up your end you’d still need someone the other end so maybe a professional job would be best?
