[QUOTE="Oklahomabassin, post: 3301426, member: 1546"] I believe they used to come pick up dead cattle from ranchers for free if they were pulled up close to the main road. Now they charge to come pick up from ranchers. My opinions: I think they had to start doing that to maintain profitability due to market demands etc. Mad Cow disease and changes in regulation reduced the demand for products rendering plants produced. Therefore rendering plants can be more selective of where they service. Processing plants obviously have a lot of waste on a regular schedule and easy for "milk run" style pick up. Valley Proteins has rendering plants in Oklahoma City and Calumet Oklahoma. I know they serve my area, but I don't know how far they travel for routine pick ups. [/QUOTE]
