Alot of processors want the money up front unless you have an established relationship with them. They don't want to get the shaft. If they are paid up front and you are a no-show to pick up the meat they already have their due.
We always do our own gutting and most times skinning but last I looked I think they were like $15 for gutting.
This is in southern Illinois.
BUTCHERING WITH BASIC CUTS AND SOME GROUND
small deer $60
