Good logistics protect animal welfare and protect your schedule. Delivery day runs best when the farm and the transporter share the same plan — from estimated arrival window to pen readiness.

Prepare housing before the truck arrives

Clean, dry bedding, working water points, and a calm unloading route make a measurable difference. Calves recover faster when they move straight into a prepared environment rather than waiting while pens are finished.

Align on timing and access

Confirm access roads, unloading space, and a contact person on site. Share any farm-specific rules early. Clear coordination reduces stress for animals and avoids costly delays for everyone involved.

Plan the first 48 hours

Have your feeding protocol, electrolytes if needed, and observation checklist ready. Early monitoring — appetite, hydration, and resting behaviour — helps catch small issues before they become herd problems.
