Captain Rugwash™: your one stop shop for horse rug laundry.

Having spent a number of years having our own horse rugs cleaned by local ‘professional’ horse rug laundry companies, we realised that many of these businesses were using the wrong type of machines, the wrong detergents, and that the money we were spending on reproofing our expensive turnout rugs was literally being poured down the drain. 

Well, as the saying goes, 'If you want the job doing right - - -

DO IT YOURSELF . ! . ! . !'

And, that’s exactly what we have done.  

Having cared for a large number of horses over the years, and with a thriving on-line equestrian business, www.tackanory.co.uk, and a busy warehouse style tack shop and equestrian clearance outlet, we know how expensive horses are to keep and clothe. We also believe that customers deserve value for money from a friendly reliable company; something that we deliver as a matter of course to our growing number of loyal Tackanory customers.

We also know from our own experiences,  that when your adorable gelding (or mare) sees a really wet, muddy puddle, they feel it is their duty to bring some of it back to their stable for you to see just how busy they have been whilst out in the field. Go on, we’ve all been there, haven’t we?

So, with all of our knowledge and experience in the equestrian industry, and the experience of caring for both our own and other people's horse for a number of years, we have set up Captain Rugwash™, the value for money horse rug laundry service, using state of the art computer controlled industrial washing machines, market leading quality rug cleaning agents like NikWax®, and one final ingredient, the renowned Tackanory level of customer service.
