livestock trailer question

[George]

I have used rubber conveyor belting but my favorite is just a couple of shovels of sand.

I cut mine to fit tight. And cut around the middle door and then in the back there is a little notch cut out of the mat on each edge where the back post is on the trailer. Mine kind of fit like a jigsaw puzzle. It took a little work but a new utility knife blade works good for cutting them.

That is how mine are also. If I do it again, I would like to find mats as wide as the trailer. The mats I bought were 6 feet long, my trailer is 6'8" wide. I puzzled all the mats in, so I don't have just one side with a narrow strip.

The real secret to providing good footing in a trailer is to just not clean them out too often. :wink:

AAAAND, let it freeze down. :wink:
