I used a Uk Company called Far and Wide last year and had someone take the stuff to be shipped to their premises. I shared space in a container. They were good. link: https://plus.google.com/110572204845053232890/about?gl=vg&hl=en

Hi Nat, I always used Kestrel Shipping. They are a cheaper way of doing it I believe as you pack it and then they put it on a pallet to go in the container. In terms of tax, it was always a total mystery to me but if you add another 20% on I expect it would not be too far out. Chris Haycraft at Island Shipping is a good starting place. Xx

We have used Jet Pets and IRT. It has been a few years but IRT had the best pricing. Your import agent will be able to help you with any ground shipping and pre-import testing necessary as well as help you determine how much quarantine your horse will require here.
