I gave used Gulleys three times in the past 2 years to remove dead horses. (I own a private retirement/sanctuary for horses and death is a sad but unavoidable part of giving lifelong care.) Gulleys responded promptly by phone or text to set up an appointment and name the price for the service. The Gulleys driver arrived on time, used his equipment effectively to remove the horse's body, and was kind talking to my family members. The price was reasonable and as agreed in advance. I recommend Gulleys. read more

Brent was very kind and patient with us and our daughter. Our daughter's horse passed away losing her best friend . He walked her through the process told us everything he would be doing during and after pickup. If you want someone caring and compassionate Brent at Gulleys Livestock is your guy. He answered every question we had. Thank you very much Brent!!! read more

Excellent customer service, very professional and fast. Made dealing with a difficult situation much easier and very reasonably priced.

My sweet baby passed away two nights ago and I had no idea what to do. I called another service that recommended Gulleys (even though they were their competitors) because they were closer to me and would probably be cheaper. I know it sounds horrible to price-shop in this situation but unfortunately that's where I'm at. I want to say that Gulleys made the worst day in the world better. They were kind on the phone, understanding of my need to wait due to payment issues, and beyond kind in person. If you find yourself in this situation, I'm so sorry and I love you, and this is the company to help. read more

Respectful when picking up our beloved family horse after having to be put down. They arrived on time and we're resonably priced.

Always on time, considerate and accommodating. Would recommend this business for all livestock disposal needs.

The guy who came and picked up our old Horse was very nice came and worked with me in my schedule. I would use them again.

I had to use Gulleys services this morning for my horse. They are so nice and kind. I made the appointment Monday and they called last night to confirm my appointment. He was here exactly on time. They are very professional and their trucks are clean . I felt like my friend was being taken to his final resting place in style. I even asked if he would say a prayer for my Cowboy At such a difficult time they handle things compassionately and professionally. Thank you for making a difficult time easier. And their fees were only $200 I highly recommend this company. Rest In Peace Cowboy read more

Unfortunately I had to say good bye to my buddy Saturday night. I called a few disposal companies near me for a Sunday pick up. They either didn't do weekends, didn't have a vehicles to handle a draft, or the charge was insane for a weekend pick up - like 4 digits insane. Turned to Google. Gulley's was the first one to pop up. I saw their location & figured there'd be no way. They are a couple hours away from me. I went to their website anyways. Said they serviced SoCal & high desert. The website was nicely layed out, including pictures of the vehicles they use. Gave them a call. So glad I did! I spoke with Brent, he was very professional over the phone & in person. He said he could be here soon. The price was amazing compared to the others I had talked to. Brent arrived right on the time quoted. The truck was in great condition & clean. I was given the option to do the paperwork first, so I wouldn't have to watch and when he was done, he'd bring the blanket over to the house. That was very thoughtful. This was the last of our little herd to pass, but if we had more horses & that difficult day came, I would be using Gulley's again, no doubt. They do accept cash, check, or credit card which makes the services convenient. read more

I'm late to review, but in leu of my late heart horses anniversary. I want to thank Brent and Judith. They have such a tough job and they do it well. Brent was so considerate and kind when I was losing my horse. He didn't rush us and allowed my family to grieve. The sympathy card is hard to look at, but that's just because of the kind words. This isn't a company people will search for fun, but I'll recommend them always to my rancher friends. read more

One of my daughter's horses was very old and had to be put down. She was at work and my other daughters and I were tasked with calling a veterinarian. . . Well I checked Yelp and found Gulley's with all 5 stars! The vet was great and Gulleys was just as good. Big thank you! read more

When the unfortunate time comes that your animals pass, these are the guys to call. Very professional and genuine. They made the process very comfortable for us. We lost our llama and one of our goats very tragically and these guys showed up within hours to help us out. They even sent us a really sweet card. Thank you guys so much for everything. We will recommend you to others when the time comes. read more

Our beloved alpaca had to be put down a few days ago and we were heartbroken. Brent called first to let me know the window of time he would arrive and he was was very caring and empathetic. A few days later we got the most beautiful card from Brent and Judith. No one wants to lose a beloved pet, but it is, unfortunately, inevitable. Gulley's has my highest recommendation. read more

I honestly don't remember much from the pick up because that whole day was a blur, I do remember him being kind and waited for me to walk away to load my horse. The only reason I gave them 4 stars is because although I think it is nice they sent out a condolence card, they butchered the spelling of my horse's name. Some may see it as a small detail but that oversight really got to me. That being said, because of that spelling faux pas, I used another service (lost two horses in one year after owning my whole life!), and they asked for my address and phone number (not mine or my horse's name) and said I had to pay cash. Showed up, dropped the back gate of the truck to reveal two cows in full rigor, that alone doesn't personally bother me but thinking of my beloved horse being drug up and dropped on top of them did. Didn't get a receipt or anything from them. So god willing I won't need to use them again, but I would definitely recommend Gulley to anyone needing their service. read more

I lost my horse of 15 years 3 days ago, it is always difficult to lose an animal you love. As any horse owner knows, unless you have a tractor and plenty of room, when its a horse you need to have it removed. That can be almost as bad as the lose itself, my vet referred me to Gulley's. This is the first review i have ever written, what a great company to deal with. They were kind, compassionate and courteous. As you do, we moved on and today when opening the mail i received a lovely condolence card, hand typed with my horse's name, Austin. Gulley's THANK YOU FOR YOUR KINDNESS DURING A DIFFICULT TIME. read more

When our beloved horse, Prince, died last week, we were heartbroken. Thinking about what to do with his body was a difficult and somewhat distasteful decision, but one that had to be made. I contacted Gulley's and he reassured me that he did not work with rendering plants, but would see that Prince was buried. He came out immediately and was so kind and respectful. We took care of the paperwork first, and then he suggested I go into the house while he picked up Prince, a suggestion I accepted. Now, a week later, I received a beautiful sympathy card from Gulley's a about the loss of our beautiful horse. I can't imagine better or kinder service from anyone. read more

I wish I remembered the name of the gentleman that came to pick up my dear old Katrina. It was a rough Tuesday, and we are still heartbroken. Katrina was very old, and we knew it was coming eventually, but you're never ready. What I do remember from that sad night was that Gulleys answered the phone after hours. I'd already picked them out for when the time came based on what I'd heard about them but I didn't know I'd need them that day so it was a relief to just get someone who could set things up right away and not have to deal with an answering service. I also remember that the driver kept in touch with an eta, and when he got there he patiently waited through several last rounds of goodbyes from us and then another after she was loaded on the truck. I guess it's worth adding that it was the nicest, cleanest hauler truck I've seen, and I know Katrina wasn't going to be bothered anymore either way but it made me feel better. It certainly made me feel better to have those last moments handled so kindly, competently and respectfully. read more

This is the type of company that you hope and pray you never have to use. But as a horse owner you know in the back your mind one day you're going to have to use a company like this. This past weekend my 32-year-old quarter horse had a stroke and started showing neurological issues. We made the call seeing that she could not really control her legs. We also did not want her to fall and injure herself. I called Brent and he said that someone would be there soon. We were still waiting for the vet and in no hurry as she was not in pain yet. Our driver Noel arrived at the same time as the vet. He was a big cowboy and I was mildly intimidated thinking that the vet just arrived we have not put our horse down yet I was worried that I might be wasting his time. He was so kind and compassionate. He actually helped us stabilize her so we could walk her successfully out of her stall and up a little hill. I did not feel rushed at all. When the time came he helped us to get lay her down so she didn't fall. He talk to her the whole time telling her that she was going to heaven and that she was such a pretty girl. Once she was down he waited patiently as all our friends and family said our final goodbyes. I requested not to watch as he put it on the truck so he waited until we had all disbursed. My husband watched for me and said the entire time he was talking to her and telling her how loved she was. Thank you for taking such good care of my girl. read more

Gulleys Livestock Disposal - Taken about a month ago - Livestock Feed & Supply Near Me - Oak Hills, California

These wonderful people were right there when it was our Ryder's time to go. They then went the extra mile and sent a lovely note to Ryder's owner. Their professional and warm way of dealing with a sad situation somehow made it easier on all of us. I'm grateful that they were the ones that were called. read more

This isn't a subject that one likes to write about, but the kudos are well deserved. Gulley's was so awesome, compassionate and patient when my horse passed recently. My friend had come to help and Brent insisted I go inside and let them handle it. They had to manipulate a chain-link fence to access. He didn't have to put it back together, but he did. Even after that extra time/labor, the cost of removal was still very reasonable. A few weeks later my neighbor's older horse passed and I referred them to Gulley's immediately. They were also very thankful and pleased with the service from Gulley's. A different guy, but just as sweet and caring. You know - it was so frustrating. I called 5 equine vets and not a single one was "on call" nor, available. I'm still beside myself that I couldn't get a single vet to respond. And, then it was to late. Gulley's response time was just over an hour (both times), from Oak Hills to north of Lake Los Angeles/East Lancaster. Thank you, Gulley's, for your impeccable service and our peace of mind. read more

These people may be wonderful for dealing with your dead livestock but not very nice when it comes to pulling in front of you with less than 2 car links between on the 215 freeway that a rock came out of their dump truck style vehicle that broke my new windshield. I called as soon as I got home and talked to Brent who is in denial and hung up on me. Any reputable business owner would of dealt with this problem in a more professional manner. So bottom line. WATCH OUT for these not so wonderful people!!! read more

As any horse lover knows, to lose one is devastating. My horse Honey passed away a few days ago and my vet recommended Gulley's to take care of the last step. When I first spoke to Brent he was so friendly and helpful which is particularly comforting under so much stress. I never liked to think of what happened to our horses after they were taken away but he told me that Honey would be buried and I loved that. The driver, Noel, kept in contact with me until he arrived and he was so helpful and compassionate. He even made sure to suggest that a take a lock of her tail which I had not even thought of since I was so upset. I'm so glad he mentioned it because I would be kicking myself now if I had not done that. Could not have asked for better. The truck is very, very nice and clean and you can be assured that your loved one is being treated with ultimate respect. I highly recommend. read more

They have visited us twice in the past 4 years, always kind and professional at such a bad time. The sympathy card we received was thoughtful. read more
