Delivery Instructions
Delivery Time
Animals are to be delivered on the Sunday before your booking between 10am-5pm. This is to ensure they empty themselves before slaughter but do not begin to starve and lose muscle mass (note, this will not affect the price as we weigh based on "dead weight").
​​
Instructions
Upon arrival, please follow the signs to the unloading area. There are two loading ramps; the metal one being adjustable. WARNING: the loading ramp is heavy, please use caution when adjusting it and when possible please use two people to adjust.
Before unloading, please open the gates to an unoccupied pen to ensure the animals don't escape.
Mark your sheep/pigs with the spray paint located in the shed beside the loading ramps. Please ensure you return the spray paint to us or we will charge you a replacement fee.
If there are no free pens available then please put your animals in a pen with the same type of animal (i.e. sheep with sheep etc.) but ensure you have used a different colour spray paint so we can tell the animals apart.
​
​Once the animals are secured in their pens, feel free to say your goodbyes and drop off your completed processing form (see below, with printed copies also available in the shed) in the shed located next to the loading ramps. Please ensure you have completed the relevant parts of the form which note what colour paint you have used to mark them and which pen they are located in.
​
​Please leave the same way that you entered.
​
​If we have any questions we will call you to ensure we have the correct information.
