What we do

Three steps, done right.

Every skull gets the full treatment — no shortcuts, no harsh bleach, no grease left behind to yellow the bone later.

I.

Cleaning

Hot-water processing and precision pressure washing strip every bit of soft tissue — nasal passages, brain cavity, eye sockets — without cooking or cracking the bone.

Hot water · Pressure wash
II.

Whitening

Professional-grade peroxide brings the bone up to a bright, even white. Unlike household bleach, it won’t weaken the skull or leave it chalky.

Peroxide · Never bleach
III.

Sealing

A clear protective coat locks in the finish and guards against UV, moisture and yellowing, so the mount still looks right decades from now.

Clear coat · UV resistant
Price list

Straightforward pricing.

One price covers the whole job — skinning, lower jaw removal, cleaning, whitening, sealing and a wall hanging bracket. Most shops charge extra for the skinning and the jaw.

Final cost depends on the size and condition of the skull — just ask and we’ll give you a straight number.

How it works

From the field to your wall.

Drop-offs are by appointment, and we take skulls year-round — including in the thick of the season.

  1. Drop it off

    Bring it in as it came off the mountain — skinning and the lower jaw are on us. Fresh? Keep it frozen until you can get it to us.

  2. We clean it

    Hot water and pressure washing take it down to clean bone — quickly, and without damage.

  3. Whiten & seal

    Peroxide whitening, then a protective clear coat for a bright finish that lasts.

  4. Pick it up

    Most mounts are ready in about a week — up to two in the busiest stretch. Yours comes with a wall hanging bracket, so it goes straight up.
