A collapsible, reusable, livestock transport stable with interchangeable components that can be constructed without tools. The stable includes several types of component parts, with like parts each being interchangeable and useable in any position where such a part is needed. The first of those component parts is a platform which serves as the base of the stable. Next, there is a pair of side panels, each of which is rotatably attached to the side edges of the platform for providing the vertical sides of the stable. Interconnecting the two side panels is an aft panel. The aft panel is isntalled by resting its lower edge along the aft edge of the platform, its two vertical edges are captured by the side panels when the side panels are in the vertical attitude. The doors are attached to the forward edges of the side panels to provide closure of the stable.
