Feed trolley: The useful helper in the stable | Alfako

A feed trolley is a useful helper in the barn for transporting animal feed from one place to another. A feed wagon makes it easier to feed your animals, as the pneumatic tyres allow the feed to be transported effortlessly. The feed trolley is particularly often used on farms with several horses.

In our Alfako online shop, we offer a practical feed trolley with a generous capacity, 2 air-filled wheels and two compartments with a hard-wearing material.

What types of feed trolleys are available?

There are different types of feed trolleys, such as a feed trolley with or without a lid, a feed trolley with one or two compartments (partition) and a feed trolley with or without a mineral container. Many horse supply shops also offer a lockable feed trolley to protect it from unauthorised access.

Feed trolley with or without lid

Whether you opt for a feed trolley with or without a lid depends on the conditions in your barn. If there is a possibility of dirt, dust or bacteria getting into the feed at the later storage location of the feed trolley, you should opt for a feed trolley with a lid. 

Dirt and dust will get into the feed trolley, especially if the feed is stored openly in the trolley for a longer period of time. If you feed the entire contents directly to the animals after filling the feed, choose a feed trolley without a lid. Small feed trolleys with a small capacity are usually offered without a lid.

Feed wagon with or without partition wall

A partition wall in the feed wagon is ideal for horse owners if different types of feed or feed rations are to be transported and distributed at the same time, but separately. A feed wagon with a partition saves a second feed aisle. Feed carts with partitions are mainly used in large stables with several horses.

A feed trolley without partitions is suitable if a standardised feed is fed to all horses (e.g. hay or the same concentrated feed). Partitions are also not necessary if the feed is weighed individually for each horse beforehand and prepared in portions in buckets. In this case, the feed trolley is used to transport the filled buckets.

Feed wagon with or without mineral container

Feed trolleys with mineral containers are suitable for storing and transporting mineral feed separately from other types of feed in the feed trolley. The separate mineral container enables a targeted and individualised mineral feed for each horse. The container for the mineral feed is simply mounted on the outer or inner wall of the feed wagon.

There is no need for a mineral container on the feed wagon in the horse stable if minerals are fed elsewhere (e.g. via lickstones or additives in concentrated feed) or if mineral feed is not administered on the instructions of the vet due to certain illnesses or individual feeding concepts.

What are the advantages of feed trolleys?

The advantages of feed trolleys are that they make feeding animals easier, are versatile, offer a large storage space and are easy to handle. Feed trolleys are also durable and long-lasting, have pneumatic wheels and are made of robust material.

The advantages of feed carts can be seen in detail in the list below.

  • Facilitate feeding: Feed trolleys make it easier to feed horses or other animals, as they allow easy transport of animal feed from the feed storage area to the horses' stalls.
  • Versatile in use: Feed trolleys are versatile as they are suitable for storing and transporting different types of feed thanks to the partition walls and extra mineral feed containers.
  • Offer large storage space: Feed wagons offer large storage space of several hundred litres and thus provide sufficient space for storing oats, compound feed, hay and other feedstuffs.
  • Uncomplicated handling: Feed carts ensure uncomplicated handling as they are easy to manoeuvre thanks to the pneumatic wheels. Some feed carts are battery-powered, which makes pushing and pulling the cart easier.
  • Durable and long-lasting: Feed carts are durable and long-lasting as they are designed to withstand the demands of the barn, daily feedings and all outside temperatures.
  • Pneumatic wheels: Feed carts are equipped with 3 to 4 pneumatic wheels to ensure easy transport of feed even on uneven terrain.
  • Are made of robust material: Feed trolleys are made of robust steel or plastic to ensure durability. Steel and plastic feed carts do not rust, which ensures that there is no rust in the feed.

When do you use feed wagons in the stable?

Feed trolleys are used in stables to store feed and to distribute and transport feed from one place to another. With a feed trolley, it is possible to store large quantities of feed, transport it directly to the horse's stall and serve it efficiently and uniformly to the animals.

Useful partitions in the feed trolley make it possible to feed several horses or different animals with different feed requirements at the same time. Feed wagons are particularly useful when several horses need to be fed at the same time and when large quantities of hay or wet roughage (such as haylage/silage) need to be transported.

What should you look out for when buying a feed trolley?

When buying a feed trolley, you need to make sure that the capacity is large enough to hold the required amount of feed. Before buying, you should therefore decide how much feed is to be stored or transported in the wagon. A smaller feed trolley is needed for one horse than for several horses.

Before buying a feed trolley, it is important to decide whether you need accessories such as a lid, a partition or a mineral container. Some feed trolley sellers also offer the option of locking the feed trolley to protect the feed inside from unauthorised access.

Tyres also play an important role when buying a feed trolley. If you travel a longer and more uneven route with the feed wagon every day, you should buy a feed wagon with large tyres. If you only drive short and even distances with the feed wagon every day, simple tyres are sufficient.
