What this sheet is for
Show for every load when the trailer or lorry was cleansed and disinfected, where and with what. It also records who checked it before the next animals went on.
Who it is for
Farmers, smallholders and hauliers who move cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, deer or poultry in their own trailer or lorry.
How to use it
- Write the vehicle, the disinfectant in use, its dilution from the label and the time limit you work to at the top.
- Log each load: date, animals carried, from where to where, and when they were unloaded.
- Record when and where the vehicle was cleansed and disinfected, and who did it.
- Initial the last column only after checking the vehicle before the next loading.
What is on the sheet
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: One trailer or lorry, one line per load: what was carried and between where, when it was unloaded, when and where it was cleansed and disinfected, with what, and the check before it was loaded again.
Your rules, your label. Which vehicles must be cleansed and disinfected, how soon after unloading and with which disinfectant depends on the species carried and on the rules where you are; dilutions come from the product label. None of these is printed: write yours in the boxes below and check the rules locally.
Write-on lines: Vehicle or trailer · Registration or ID · Owner or haulier · Year · Disinfectant in use · Dilution from the label · Time limit you work to, after unloading
Also printed: Journey · Cleansed and disinfected
Table, 11 rows: Date · Animals · From · To · Unloaded · When · Where · Disinfectant · By · Checked
Write-on lines: Any load not cleansed straight after unloading: why, and where it was done · Reviewed by
Questions
How soon after unloading does a trailer have to be cleaned?
That depends on the species and on the rules where you are, and some journeys have exceptions. The sheet does not print a time: write the limit that applies to you in the box at the top, and check it with your local animal health office.
Which disinfectant should I use?
One that is approved for the purpose where you are, made up to the dilution on its label. Write the product and the dilution at the top of the sheet, and again on any line where something different was used.
