How to Clean Out Stables

If you own horses you will need to keep their environment clean. The stables will need to be cleaned out weekly to keep the horses healthy and their environment safe for them. You can easily clean out the stables in just a matter of time.

Things you will need:



  • Hay

  • Rake

  • Broom

  • Work gloves

  • Shovel

  • Wheelbarrow

  • Water

  • Scrub



  1. Put on your work gloves before you begin cleaning out the stable. You will also want to wear an old pair of clothing that you wont mind getting dirty.

  2. Clean out the horse manure with the shovel. You will need to use a wheelbarrow to move the manure from the stable to where you want the manure to be moved.

  3. Get your rake and clean out the hay that is in the stable. Make sure you remove the horse before you clean out the stable. This will give you enough room to work and get it cleaned up fast.

  4. Use the broom once all the hay is removed from the stable. Once the floor has been cleaned up you will need to use a scrub brush with some water to scrub the floor. Once the entire floor has been scrubbed you will need to hose it down with water. 

  5. Add the new hay to the stable. Once the stable has been cleaned and has dried you will need to add new hay to the floor for the horse. Make sure you spread out the hay for the horses.
