This Month We Love – Stable Yard Equipment

As one season draws to a close, you may choose this time to look at replacing old and damaged stable yard equipment.  We decided to compile an overview of some great yard tools to set you up for the months to come…

Once the winter is underway, you may be thinking of a one off spring clean once it’s all over. Maintenance at this time of year is key to keeping your stable yard in great condition all year round.

Hang those wet, muddy rugs up with a Wall Mounted Rug Rack at £66.00 for a three-arm hanger, including free delivery.

We love the traditional corn brooms not only are they lightweight, but they’re great to use on uneven yards and cobbles too. Ideal for use in the hay barn. We liked the longer and more colourful handle on these. Each broom costs £10.90, from VioVet.

Looking for something a little harder wearing, the wider and flatter Harold Moore Stable and Yard Broom comes in a variety of colours and is great to cover a larger area when brushing. Easy to wash out and long-lasting these brooms are available to purchase at £39.90 on Amazon.

For shaving beds, we can personally recommend the Fyna-Lite shavings fork for durability and use-ability. The fork has a metal handle and makes mucking out easier, especially when having to do several stables. Great for the taller user with a longer handle, the fork lasts year after year. Also available in a junior size. Costs £37.50 including free delivery.

If you are after a super lightweight shavings fork for smaller beds, the ABS fork does what it says on the tin. Recommended for bedding that’s used with stable mats, the fork comes with a handy mid grip and long handle. Cost effective at £22.95 including free delivery.

Tubtrugs come in a variety of colours and are uncountably the latest in must have feeding and yard equipment. The sizes vary, however so does the price and if budget is your thing, these strong and durable bowls may not be an option, however what we can say is you do get value for money as they are lightweight and can last for years. The colour options are also a good way of splitting feed and water buckets between different horses. Priced from £5.95 including free delivery.
