Quick Facts to Help Answer Your Questions

Wild Game Cleaning Fees

Right to Refuse Wild Game

We do charge cleaning fees.

Dry, dirty, hairy and excessively blood shot carcasses/meat create additional work for our staff and therefore will be charged an additional $0.75/lb.

If any cleaning fee is recorded on your intake form, please note you can expect a 15-25% maximum yield.

Right to Refuse Wild Game

We reserve the right to refuse any carcass for any reason and we WILL REFUSE carcasses that are excessively dirty, dry, hairy or shot.

We do not wish to possibly contaminate another hunter's meat because care was not taken in the field or during transport.

There are many videos online to assist you in the proper ways to keep your meat safe and clean after the kill.

Wild Game Skinning Fees

Right to Refuse Wild Game

Wild Game Skinning Fees

We do charge skinning fees.

Skinning an animal takes additional time for our staff, therefore, we do charge additional fees that range from $40-$100 depending upon the species of the animal received.

Animals received with the hide on will be inspected for further damage, etc. after the hide has been removed. This inspection may lower your yield as we may discover damage to the carcass that was unseen during intake. You will be notified on any changes to your order or additional costs.
