5280 Processing is located in the heart of Wheat Ridge Colorado. We are a family owned and operated business with more than 100 years of combined experience. We are a custom cut wild game processor and are licensed to process domestic animals.
5280 Processing is happy to process your Antelope, Bear, Big Horn Sheep, Buffalo, Caribou, Deer, Duck, Elk, Geese, Moose, Mountain Goat, and Wild Boar. Don't see your animal listed, that's okay, just give us a call at 303-650-7471 and we can see how we can assist you.
Exotic or Farm/Ranch Raised Animals are also accepted.
We DO NOT accept frozen carcasses or quarters. All carcasses and quarters must be thawed prior to acceptance.
Frozen meat that has been previously processed will be accepted during any season.
We also are licensed to process most domestic animals. However, we do not offer slaughter services.
All wild game, exotic and farm raised animals must have a valid carcass tag or receipt from the ranch/farm.
We operate on a first come, first serve basis. Reservations are not required.
At the time of drop-off at 5280 Processing, your animal will be issued a color coded tag to indicate species as well as an Invoice Number. This Invoice Number will remain with your animal from start to finish. This helps ensure you get your meat back.
Unlike other processors, we don't combine orders or animals so you can rest assured you are getting your meat back. This is the reason our sausage and jerky orders can take up to 16 weeks to complete.
All of our steaks and roasts are cut boneless, vacuum sealed and packaged for a family of 2. All burger is packaged in approx. 1 lb. poly chubs and tied with Orange Tape.
