"Hi Liz,
Just to say a very, very big thank you to you and your team. Am pleased to report "Mr Ben" is happily grazing in his paddock none the worse for his journey. My husband is very pleased to have him "home", I fly out next Wednesday and am very excited to have all my animals under one roof so to speak. I am looking to make several other horse purchasers in the UK and would like to use yourselves and I will be recommending you and the service you have given us to all friends in France and the UK.
Many, many thanks again and Happy birthday for the 19th!
Kindest regards
Charlotte and "Mr Ben" xx"
"Can I say a HUGE thank you to you and your staff for delivering Hektor this morning to Persac, France .....he was sooo chilled and is now grazing in his new paddock. Please pass on my thanks to Martin and Cheryl for taking good care of him and keeping me informed of his movements.
This is the first time I have sent a horse abroad and I am very glad I chose LOC, it was a relief to see him safe and sound coming off the lorry.
THANK YOU ....all of you"
"Hi Liz,
Polo arrived safe and sound at 7.30am this morning - he was completely chilled out and relaxed - thank you all for your help in making this a smooth transition not just for Polo but for us.

"Hi Liz,
We have a Livery and Lairage Yard in The Limousin France, over the past 8 years Liz has moved many horses for clients of ours and some of our own horses, both from France to the UK and from the UK to France, Liz also uses our Lairage facilities to rest horses when en route through Europe.
We highly recommend Liz and her team, they are lovely people, very professional, very experienced, and take excellent care of the horses in their charge. Having seen first hand how they work with the horses, we can honestly say they are very kind and patient.. and are excellent with difficult loaders and youngsters.
The lorry is lovely...always clean, very light and airy and can take very large horses with comfort and ease.
Thanks again Liz and the guys for all your help
See You soon - Deb and Chris White"
"Hi Liz,
Thanks very much for transporting Jenny - she settled immediately and is now integrated with her field mates. Martin was brilliant - and I'm sure she was so calm due to the way she was transported.
Your service was brilliant - friendly and professional from beginning to end. I will definitely recommend you.
thanks for everything,Sarah"

"Dear Liz,
Bit belated but I wanted to thank you for the safe, happy and healthy delivery of my horses to mouterre in France. They are very special to me despite my husband sending the invoice referencing them as the 2 NAGS!!
They arrived relaxed and in perfect condition. In fact, so relaxed were they that we had our lovely 1st gentle hack around the French chemins the very next day!!
I really appreciated all the communication from yourselves. Also accommodating their preference to overnight in a field rather than a box!
Thank you again

"Hi Liz,
I have already heard that the fillies have arrived in good condition.
It was a pleasant for me to meet you. I sold several horses to England before, but this way of management was the easiest way. Normally the transport date changes for example from Tuesday to Wednesday, oh, and then from Wednesday to Thursday...and so on. That´s difficult to plan for me.
Thanks also to you for the nice contact.
Best regards Nicole"

Palomita looks great fed all the way ,seems quiet happy as though she only went a short ride round the block.
I only wish I had contacted you for the Spain to UK trip, in April. would have saved me crying for a month,watching poor Palomita get back to normal . Some people who are bringing a horse from UK to Portugal,next spring think they do riding holidays asked me to let them know how her travel went.
Big big thanks Wendy n Palomita"

Just a quick email to thank you for delivering Dotty the pregnant coloured mare to us last week. She's settled down beautifully and has been out for 2 hacks already, with no apparent ill-effects and as if she'd only travelled round the corner!
You are to be commended on their ability to deliver happy horses! Thanks again! I don't have any more horses up my sleeve to bring out, but will certainly recommend your services to anyone who does!

"Hi Liz
The horses arrived safely on Saturday. I just wanted to thank you for working so quickly to get the them on your transporter. I was thoroughly impressed with your organisation as well as with Denise and Martin who are incredibly experienced and professional and give the horses the highest care.
The horses came off the lorry looking like they had travelled only from Dorking instead of France. I have passed your details on to my friends who regularly import horses from Spain with my recommendations and I will not hesitate to use you again in the future.
Thanks again Jacqui"

Thanks for all your hard work and obvious experience in moving my 4 horses to France.
Your handling of them was fantastic and has removed a lot of worry I had in particular with Brewster. Diane was really impressed with how you dealt with them at the French end. Its great to have them there and our new lives in France have almost started!
I'm the last one left in the UK. I would recommend you to anyone.

If the horses ever need moving again I'll definitely be contacting you!"

"Dear LocLtd
Just wanted to say a big thank you to Denise and Ben for the very good care they must have given to my horses, Elfa and BB. They arrived in a much better state than I thought they would have given the length of the trip and the fact that they were virtually unhandled.
I think Denise is right about BB going to be a bit of a handful though... going to be gelded asap!
Thank you again Denise,
All the best

I will be in contact during the show season this summer,

"Hello Liz,
I just wanted to thank you and Denise very much for delivering Leo safe and sound. Leo being only two years old and his first journey in a lorry, I was amazed to find that after an eleven hour journey he had barely a patch of sweat on him and settled straight in to his new stable.
I could not have asked for anymore - I will without doubt use your service again and recommend you to my friends. Once again
Many Thanks and Happy Christmas.

"Hi Liz,
Just a quick email to say thank you to you and Denise for making the moving day go as stresslessly as possible.
Denise was brilliant with the horses (and nervous owners!) and nothing was too much bother - even when we ended up having to unload on the main road through the village and walk quite a way to the yard!
I will absolutely recommend you to anyone who needs transport in the future and I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.
Very best,

Thank you for taking us out to the other side of no-where. As promised please feel free to use my recommendation on your website, should you wish to."
"Liz,
A big thank you for taking me and my horse to the vet. He is not the best traveller and I had concerns as the journey was going to take a several hours.
Your ability to manoeuvre your large lorry down the smallest of roads was remarkable. On arrival he showed no signs of stress and had been relaxed enough to eat his hay on the journey (a first!).
I would not hesitate to recommend you and I shall certainly be booking you for the return journey.
Many thanks to you and your staff.

The horses travelled so well and are very happily established in their new home. Hope solo trip to France went OK!

"Hi Liz
Yes all sorted out now and horses happily ensconced in their new abode.
I had to e-mail and say how very impressed we were with your excellent service. The whole exercise went much better than if we had planned it ourselves. It was so reassuring to know that the horses could be seen from the cab at all times, and for us to get frequent updates on how the horses were faring, and how land where they were being stabled and rested.
They arrived back in great form, such a different situation from when they were taken out to Spain, when they arrived distressed, dehydrated and hungry, having travelled non-stop for the previous 24 hours, and detoured to Barcelona on the way !. The drivers told us this themselves !
Its so reassuring to see that they are being transported by people who are genuine horses lovers, and with excellent knowledge and concern for horse welfare.
Many thanks again, and please pass on our thanks to Denise (and Nick) for their excellent job !
Best wishes
Helen Doig"

"Dear Liz
I just wanted to say a really big 'Thank you' to you for organising the transportation of my 4 horses so efficiently and so well.
Denise and Mick were WONDERFUL - the horses were calm and relaxed when they arrived, couldn't believe they had actually travelled that far!! looked like they had just gone for a quick spin round the block!!
Denise and Mick also helped us lead the horses up a long track to the field as the lorry was too big (I had anticipated this) and then assisted us with unloading the furniture afterwards.
You are very lucky to have such professional and caring staff and I will most definitely be recommending LOC Transport at every opportunity! My friend is thinking of moving down here and I know that she was also very impressed.
Thank you all so much.
Kirsty Betts and Copper, Rae, Poppy and Sonny!"
"Dear Liz
Just a quick message to thank you and Denise for taking care of Splash on his trip up from Leicestershire.
He arrived happy and content after a long journey in warm conditions. I was very impressed to find Denise on the lorry after Splash had unloaded cleaning down every partition - at 2.30am!
Having moved horses to and from all over the UK in the past I was particularly impressed by your service and wouldn't hesitate to use your company again, or to recommend you. In fact, I have passed your details to the lady from whom Splash was purchased as she sells a large number of horses and ponies and she said she would use you as well.
With very best wishes

"Thanks for letting me know about the card Liz.
Harry has arrived safe and sound and is already settling well. Lovely to have him here! Denise is very nice, it wasn't an easy trip for her so she really did do well. She must be exhausted!

Many thanks again,

Thank you to both yourself and Denise, who after a long day herself was still smiling.

"Hi Liz,
Many thanks for the superb service in moving our horses to our new home.
Denise was a real 'brick' and did a great job for us with a very large lorry on a very small road Lol! It's a pity we didn't know of you when we lived in France a we did an awful lot of business with Parkers - if you need a reference any time give us a call.
Please give our thanks and best regards to Denise and when we buy in more horses etc I'll give you a call.
All the best for now
