Dickinson & Son 84 Packing Co., Inc.

Dickinson & Son 84 Packing Co., Inc. operates at 1949 Route 136 in Eighty Four, Washington County, Pennsylvania, under USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service establishment number M19455+P19455. The federal record lists the plant for meat slaughter, meat processing, poultry slaughter, and poultry processing, with a grant of inspection date on file of June 4, 2018. FSIS classifies it in the Very Small size category.

The establishment reports custom-exempt slaughter, meaning it processes animals owned by the customer with packages marked Not for Sale, and it also reports retail-exempt sales. Species detail is not reported to FSIS, so the specific animals accepted are not part of the federal record. A secondary listing describes the operation as a slaughterhouse at the same Route 136 address.

There is no website on file for this establishment, and no verified hours, pricing, booking process, or product list. Details beyond the federal record are not yet on file. Farmers and household buyers should contact the plant directly at (724) 222-9045 to confirm current activity, species handled, and availability, as listed.

The federal record lists this establishment for both meat and poultry slaughter and processing, and it reports custom-exempt slaughter, which means animals owned by the customer can be processed with the resulting packages marked Not for Sale. Species detail is not reported to FSIS, and no information about booking lead times, minimums, kill days, fees, or cut and wrap options is on file. A farmer considering hauling animals here should call (724) 222-9045 to confirm which species are accepted and whether the plant is scheduling work.

Dickinson & Son 84 Packing Co., Inc. reports custom-exempt slaughter to FSIS, which means it can process an animal a customer already owns (a whole, half, or share bought before slaughter) and return it in packages marked Not for Sale. Most small farms have one or two plants they book with, and the plant's calendar decides the delivery date.

The plant reports retail-exempt sales to FSIS, which indicates some direct sales activity, but no retail counter hours, product list, bundle or halves and quarters offerings, delivery, shipping, or online ordering are stated in any source on file. Household buyers should contact the establishment by phone to ask what is available.

If you are buying a half or quarter animal, the plant is where the animal is processed; the farm sells you the animal. Read how to buy a half cow for the sequence and the math.
