ABOUT OUR STORY
EXPERIENCED HORSE TRANSPORT PROFESSIONALS
Paul Grindrod, a former international event rider started his business over 25 years ago as a side-line to his livery business and competition career. Sadly, an injury brought his eventing career to an early end. As a result, Paul found the time to fully develop the professional horse transport side of the business, specialising in regular trips to Northern Europe and Greece. Using his family’s farm and 40 stables as a base, the business has grown and grown.
Established in 1996, Laund View International Equine Transport have been transporting horses and ponies for over 25 years. All of our team are experienced horse transport professionals and specialise in equine logistics.
Nestled in the heart of Lancashire, we are ideally situated for all transport routes. We cover the whole of the UK and Europe. We offer weekly journeys to Europe with shared loads and private dedicated journeys on request.
Our Laund View Equestrian base boasts exceptional facilities, including turnout paddocks, an indoor horse walker and modern Monarch stables which are located within an American-style barn suitable for horses in transit or quarantine.
