FIVE WAYS TO KEEP YOUR BARN, TRAILER & SHOW STALLS CLEAN

March 5, 2021

Whether you only show once a month or haul to shows every weekend, keeping your truck, trailer and show stalls clean can be a challenge. In the world of horses, cleanliness on the road is the first line of defense against many common contagious equine diseases that could easily stop your show season in its tracks. That’s why we’ve made a list of our top five cleaning tips (including some of our favorite DiO cleaning products) so that next time you hit the road, you can go show without worrying about your horse’s health and wellness.

1. Tidy Your Truck.

Road trips take a toll on any vehicle, and that seems to be doubly true for horse show road trips. Spend some time before and after each trip cleaning out all the detritus that collects in your truck cab (and truck bed!). While you’re at it, double-check your emergency supplies – first aid kit, jumper cables, tire gauges and other items – and flip through your binder of important horse papers to be sure everything is up to date and ready to go for your next trip.

2. Deep-Clean Your Trailer.

If you haul often throughout the year, it’s a good idea to perform aperiodic deep-clean of all the spaces in your trailer, from the hay racks to the stalls to the tackroom and beyond. Deep-Clean Day is also a great time to perform basic maintenance on your tires and hitch and inventory your traveling tack room to discover if you’re low on any supplies (such as Draw It Out Horse Liniment). Spend some time in the horse compartment and check for splinters, sharp edges and other potential problems that could cause injuries on the road. Once your trailer is totally empty, grab your trusty bottle of DiO Triple Action SuperClean Stall Cleaner and get to work. Thanks to its natural orange oils and Bio-Enzymatic formula, SuperClean cleans, deodorizes and degreases, including breaking down organic material with ease. Attach a hose to the 32 oz bottle for easy automatic dilution and you can start cleaning within minutes.

There’s a reason that DiO products have become a staple in tack rooms and barns all over the country,

and that’s because they work while being gentle, safe and easy to use.
