What Research and Best Practices Say About Safe Horse Transport

Veterinary and animal welfare research emphasizes that trailer design and transport practices directly affect horse health and stress levels. Key areas backed by scientific observation include ventilation to reduce respiratory risk, stable footing and ramp ergonomics to prevent slips and injuries, and suspension improvements to minimize vibration and jarring. Technology such as GPS and onboard cameras supports faster emergency response and better route planning, which can reduce transport time and stress. While specific system performance varies between manufacturers, the general findings support investing in well-ventilated, shock-absorbing trailers with good sight lines and easy cleaning surfaces to protect both horse and handler.

Ventilation: Peer-reviewed studies and veterinary guidance show adequate airflow during transport lowers the risk of respiratory infections and reduces heat stress, especially on long trips or in warm-weather conditions.

Suspension and vibration control: Research indicates that improved suspension systems reduce whole-body vibration and sudden jolts, which lowers the incidence of transport-related muscle soreness and stress.

Flooring and ramp design: Veterinary ergonomics research finds that non-slip, properly angled ramps and cushioned flooring reduce falls and limb injuries during loading and unloading.

Journey monitoring: Field reports and transport-safety analyses demonstrate that onboard cameras and GPS tracking help detect problems early, shorten response times, and improve overall trip safety and route efficiency.

Biosecurity and cleaning: Studies on disease control note that smooth, corrosion-resistant surfaces that are easy to wash reduce pathogen persistence and support better herd health management.

Across Canada, the right horse transport solution combines safety, comfort and practicality for the distances and climates you face. We hope this Top 8 list helped you identify trailers and accessories that match your needs for 2025. If you did not find exactly what you wanted, refine or expand your search by model, material, capacity, or features using the search tool to narrow options by province, towing class, or technology.
