WASHING $3.00/lb based on raw weight*

To ensure proper processing, we prefer to wash all fibre ourselves. We do accept washed fibre; however, we reserve the right to wash any fibre we consider inadequately washed, and to charge accordingly.

Price List (per finished lb):

Please note that we have no minimum order size; however, on each job of less than five (5) lb., we base our wash price on actual weight washed, but our finished product is priced as if it were 5 lb. finished weight.
