Traveling with horses is a big job. Don't let transporting heavy horse stall mats be part of the hassle. Lightweight stall mats make the entire transportation process simpler. At the same time, there is no reason to forego durability or longevity just for transportability. The following five horse portable stall mats are lightweight and easy to handle during transfer. Yet, each one will last you no matter how many times you install, uninstall and install again. Check out the following of Greatmats' top five portable horse stall mat solutions.

1. High Density Foam Portable Horse Stall Mats

For horse owners interested in the most lightweight stall mats, Greatmats recommends its Portable Horse Stall Mats. Each mat weighs in at a mere 3.6 pounds and is specifically designed for hassle-free installation and transportability. These portable stall mats are made of high density EVA foam, which is why they are so lightweight.

Despite being lighter weight than any other lightweight stall mats on the market, these mats will still withstand heavy horse loads. They are also waterproof and easy to clean with common household floor cleaners (avoid bleach). You can even hose these mats off and let them dry before storing them.

Because they are designed for temporary installations, this product is not recommended for extended or permanent use.

2. Sundance Mats 2x2 ft x 3/4 interlocking black

2x2 Portable Horse Stall Mats
Interlocking Black Sundance portable stall mats are the most durable portable stall mats that still maintain the ability for easy transport. Tiles are designed with an easy-to-use interlocking connecting system that will not degrade no matter how many installations occur. At the same time, they are a solid 3/4 inches thick for maximum durability, longevity, and anti-fatigue benefits.

Tiles can be used as either a temporary or a permanent horse stall flooring option. Either way, tiles will not come apart unless you choose to deinstall them. Then, they are as easy to take up as they are to put down. Each mat is easy to carry and handle at 2 x 2 feet and 17 pounds. These tiles require no extra maintenance beyond hosing off or damp mopping with a pH neutral cleaner.

3. 1/2 Inch Rubber Stall Mats

For a portable horse stall mat that is more durable than foam, consider the Rubber Mat Classic Straight Edge product. These mats weight 70 pounds each so two people will be needed to carry them. These mats are often used in barn aisles and grooming areas.

These rubber mats feature a smooth surface on both sides making them easy to clean.

4. 3/4 Inch 4x6 ft Rubber Mat

4x6 Rubber Horse Stall Mats
For a thicker and more durable mat, Greatmats recommends Straight Edge 4x6 Rubber Cobblestone Mats. Rubber mats are durable and are often used for permanent stall mats. Each mat weighs 95 lbs and usually requires two people to carry the mat. These are best for horse trailers where you may only want to pull the mat out once in a while for a thorough cleaning of the horse trailer.

Rubber horse stall mats are designed to reduce back and leg strains that can lead to animal injuries. The pebble top surface finish increases traction and safety for footing. Plus, mats insulate against cold and damp conditions to help create a comfortable and healthy environment for animals.

5. Perforated Rubber Mat

Wash Rack Classic Interlocking Mat is Greatmats' best selection for lightweight stall mats with drainage. Each tile is made of rubber that is ring-perforated so water can freely flow through the tiles. They are specially designed for wet areas like wash bays. If you need to easily lay out flooring for a water-prone area, these portable stall mats will do the trick.

Each 3 x 3 mat weighs only 14 pounds each and is 1/2 inch thick. Tiles are made of durable and long-lasting non-porous rubber material. Further, the tiles provide an anti-fatigue function for animals and feature an anti-slip surface.
