About Carterton Meat Processors

Carterton Meat Processors is an owner-run home kill and game processing business at 24 Memorial Square in Carterton, in the Wairarapa. The site says Shane, Alicia and their team are the owner operators, and it describes the service as paddock to plate. The business specialises in home kill and game processing, and it makes a range of small goods, including salami, sausages and bacon. Sheep, pork and game drop-offs are arranged by phone.

Processing prices (as at 2026) include $8 a kilo for plain sausages, $9 for saveloy and $11 for mint and rosemary, thyme and sage, and lamb and mint sausages. Gluten-free sausage options are listed. Steak options are free flow at $30, freezing beef at $50, or both at $70. Boning, rolling and butterflying cost an extra $5.50 each. Sausages need 7.5 kilograms of meat, and the site asks for full payment on collection. Home kill orders are for the owner's own animal, and the form asks customers to confirm that.
