L Clark Livestock Transport
L Clark Livestock Transport is based in Mid-Wales, near Aberystwyth and specialises in moving small numbers of horses, ponies, donkeys, mules, cattle, alpaca, llama, sheep, pigs - in fact animals of any species, direct to their destination. Clark Transport does not generally do multiple pick-ups; that way you know that your valuable animals will spend the minimum time in transit. We can also take animals to shows and can trans-ship stock into larger or smaller vehicles if required - current regulations permitting.
Lucy Clark, the owner, has over 20 years' experience of all classes of livestock and herself owns a flock of pedigree Wiltshire Horn sheep. She also has 2 ponies, one of which, 'Trooper', is available as a travelling companion if your horse does not like to travel alone.
The truck is small, to get into most Welsh farmyards. The new stock box is Farm Assured and can carry 80+ lambs on two decks, 4+ finished cattle, 4 horses / ponies - depending on size.
For horses there are rubber mats & partitions to carry up to 4. If your horse is unused to being tied or has a foal at foot, it can be carried loose. Any type or combination of animals can be carried.
We also carry other goods, providing the welfare of the animals is not compromised. There is room for 2 passengers if you wish to travel with your animals.
Fully Licensed
L Clark Livestock Transport is fully licensed with both the Department of Transport and DEFRA and holds authorisation to carry livestock for over 8 hours. L Clark Livestock Transport is a member of the Road Haulage Association (RHA); your animals are carried under their Conditions of Carriage, which includes a certain amount of insurance cover. A copy of RHA Conditions of Carriage for Livestock is available on request. The truck is also Farm Assured.
Paperwork
It is said that there is more paperwork involved in moving animals than in moving nuclear waste!
The provision of all necessary movement licenses is the responsibility of the owner of the animals. We do carry a supply of AML1 and AML2 forms if needed. Passports for cattle and horses need to be carried with them when they travel. Please ensure all livestock are correctly tagged.
