Stacking small bales on pallets

I stored on pallets in the barn to keep it off the ground which ruined all the bottom bales otherwise. Didn't do any moving around on/with them.
 
thank you for sharing that great looking country around you. I wonder if Vermer had designed something like that instead of the large round baler, would we see a lot more square bales here today?

Nice, thank you! The pallets take a lot of work and wood, but make the system possible, and store the hay nicely.


New Holland made a complicated wagon that would pick up from the ground and stack bales sort of like that, without the pallet. They had 2
sizes, about 60 bales and 99 bales per load. Some were even self propelled. They needed a very tall shed to operate.

NH made a lot more then just two models over the years. I have a 1975 NH buyers guide that shows the 1002, 1012, 1032, 1033, and 1034 all pull types. The self propelled models were the Super 1048, Super 1049, and the 1065. And NH still makes bale wagons today. Ours currently is a Super 1049 that holds 160 bales. Can't afford anything newer for the 3,000 bales we put up.
 
Thank you all for comments!

So did we too even before I made this trailer and the lowest layer is still worse quality than others. A better storage would be very good in many ways.

Not so many make square bales in here nowadays. Plastic covered round bales are very popular though they are expensive to make too.

We didn't know much of bale collecting machines down here before youtube time. The season to make dry hay is much too short to invest big money I think.
 
There was a brief period everyone in dairy had a 99 bale ny wagon around here.

Then round bakers came out, and then plastic tubes for silage came out, and that was kinda that. Small squares are still popular, but on a smaller scale operation any more.
