Absolute shambles of a company to work for. Health and safety is non existent and too much is expected of you in your first week. Not to mention they sack you for breathing oxygen wrong. Also it’s lik... See more

Great service from equitrek today

Great service from equitrek today, noticed that the ramp had got heavy on my horsebox, phoned on Friday, a very nice Dave from equitrek was at my home Monday to replace the gas struts. The ramp now works perfectly. Many thanks.

The brake actuating rod on my wife’s…

The brake actuating rod on my wife’s trailer came undone whilst she was travelling to an event and naturally I got a phone call at home asking for help. She took a photo of the end of the rod and sent it to me so that I could prepare some bits for a rescue mission. Not knowing the thread size I phoned up Equi-trek and asked to speak to the workshop where I hoped to find an engineer who would know what I was talking about. He did and was able to tell me the thread size and that the clevis was likely to be still in place.
So helpful, thank you.
Interesting to note that the rod had vibrated loose despite the locknut. Something to check in the future.

David Townsend was extremely helpful

David Townsend was extremely helpful, firstly offering advice as to what to look for in a used trailer. After viewing a few privately, we then went back to him to buy a reconditioned one from Equi-trek. He was very understanding of our situation and answered all our questions. We are very happy with the trailer and it looks and feels like a new one!

David was very helpful

David was very helpful throughout the purchase. From initial enquiry making sure he understood what I needed the trailer for and what was best fit bearing in mind heart VS head VS cost. He explained the process of buying from them and what safety checks/ service would be done. Very patient with collection date too.

Absolute joke of a company

Absolute joke of a company. Doesn’t pay their bills. Constantly makes excuses or no communication. Avoid at all costs

Brand New Night Treka

I recently purchased a brand new Night Treka from Equitrek Sheffield.
David Townsend was very helpful and wasn't pushy at all. He guided us through the process and even let me have some extra tie rings added inside and out to make the trailer more tailored to my horse.
I may need some modifications adding to the breast bar in the near future due to my naughty pony, but David is happy to discuss these options if I require them.
Really happy with the service, and I have recommended Equi-trek to my friends who are hoping to hire a trailer from them soon.
Thank you David!

Regards
Louise, Smurf & Bluebell

Absolutely thrilled with my new Equi-Trek Day Teka

Absolutely thrilled with my new Equi-Trek Day Treka trailer, from the Sheffield branch of Equi-Trek.
David Townsend was fantastic, from disappointment about the trailer I inquired about already being sold to getting me an equivalent option that was a better model and with all the extras for an amazing price!
Plus a super quick turnaround to get the horses back on the road in no time!
I would definitely recommend them to anyone.
100% on customer service, from enquiry to collection.
I cannot praise this company and David enough.

Just bought a brand new Night Tr

Just bought a brand new Night Treka from Sheffield, so happy with it, Mercaddes was brilliant , only took as little as 3 days and she went above and beyond, sorting out the extras we needed and then getting it delivered to Sheffield , thank you Mercaddes a credit to Equi Trek.
We picked up on Saturday and a lovely lady Jenny (hope this was her name) dealt with us, she gave us time to check the trailer, showed us how everything worked, and she was brilliant with my little niece (5yrs old) All in all everything was super efficient.
Thank you Team

I hired a superb trailer for collecting an ebay purchase of a Land Rover.
TrekTrailers looked after me superbly, Jenny & her Mum are awesome.
The trailer more than ticked a box for my needs and the price & deposit were on the ball.
I will be recommending them to friends and colleagues as well as using them again in the future.
Thanks again Jenny.

Smooth and Stress-Free Rental:

Smooth and Stress-Free Rental:
Our experience hiring the Equi-Trek horse box was fantastic.We have hired horse boxes 4 times this year travelling from Sheffield to London on and back on 3 occasions , the rental process was smooth, Jenny and the team made it stress-free.

User-Friendly Design:
Loading and unloading our horses was a breeze. The ramps are well-designed, and the whole setup is user-friendly, even for someone renting for the first time.

Maneuverability Made Easy:
Navigating the horse box was surprisingly easy. It handled turns well, and parking was a cinch, even in tighter spots. Perfect for someone not used to towing.

Top-notch Safety:
Safety was a priority. The horse box felt secure on the road, and the features in place gave us confidence in the well-being of our horses during transport.

Driver Comfort:
The interior was straightforward, and the controls were easy to manage. The inclusion of a rearview camera was a nice touch, making it convenient for the driver.

Reliable Rental:
The Equi-Trek horse box proved to be a reliable choice. It had a durable build, and we were confident it could handle the journey without any issues.

Overall Rental Experience:
Equi-Trek delivered a 5-star experience. From booking to returning, it was hassle-free. The horse box was exactly what we needed for a safe and comfortable journey for our horses.
We have hired several
