Portable vs Fixed
Cost
A portable system costs $5,000 to $15,000 more than the same components fixed in place, from the frame, axles and hydraulics that fold it.
Where it pays
Leased pasture, cattle on more than one farm, or custom work. Hauling cattle to a fixed facility costs time and shrink every trip.
Where it does not
One farm, one set of pens. A fixed alley on concrete with a $5,500 Priefert S04 costs half as much and never needs to be hitched.
Portable kit only
Titan West sells a portable kit for its Equalizer chute for $1,825, and Salt Creek sells a trailer for $3,400 to $3,600. That makes one chute portable without buying a system.
Where to Buy a Portable Corral
Howard Stores sells the Arrowquip portables and the Heeler. Farm and Ranch Store has the W-W Express and EZ Duz It, and Ackerman’s the Titan West portables.

The Three Kinds of Portable, Explained
Portable chute and alley, $15,000–$25,000
A chute on a wheel kit with a short alley and sometimes a tub. Tows behind a pickup. Needs panels at the site to make pens.
Portable working system, $20,000–$38,000
Chute, alley and tub on one frame. The W-W Express and Arrowquip Portable 75 with tub are this type. Still needs holding pens.
Portable corral, $49,000–$60,000
Pens, alley, tub and chute fold onto one trailer. The Arrowquip Heeler sets up as a full corral for up to 35 pairs on any pasture.
Portable Corral Questions
How much does a portable cattle corral cost?
A full portable corral with pens, alley, tub and chute runs $49,400 to $60,350 for the Arrowquip Heeler. Portable chute-and-alley systems start at $15,400.
How many cattle does a portable corral hold?
Arrowquip rates the Heeler for up to 35 cow-calf pairs. Portable working systems without pens hold only what is in the alley and tub, so you add panels for holding.
Can one person set up a portable corral?
The Heeler and W-W Express are built to unfold from one trailer by one person. Systems assembled from loose panels take two.
Do I need a special truck to pull one?
A half-ton pickup pulls most portable chute systems. A loaded Heeler weighs several tons and wants a three-quarter-ton or larger.
Is a used portable system worth it?
A 2023 Arrowquip Heeler listed at $30,000 to $46,940 used against $49,400 new. Check axles, hinges and the chute’s headgate latch.
