For farmers and ranchers

The plant reports both slaughter and processing activity to FSIS for cattle and hogs, and it reports custom-exempt slaughter, so a producer can bring animals for processing that returns Not for Sale packages for the animal's owner. Because the FSIS slaughter volume category is 1, under 1,000 head per year, and the size class is Very Small, capacity is limited and scheduling should be confirmed directly by phone at (304) 425-6569. Booking windows, minimums, kill and cut fees, hanging weight pricing, and cut and wrap options are not stated in the available sources.

Taylors Meat Processing 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.
