Hi everyone.

I am trying to haul a roto baler 500 or so miles and was wondering how wide and long a trailer will I need? Has anyone had any experience hauling one? Can it be taken apart and hauled in smaller pieces? If it was closer it could be pulled behind a truck I suppose with new tires and packed wheel bearings.

Thanks for the help..

I hauled one on an 80 inch trailer, with one wheel hanging over the left side of the trailer. I had supported the frame of the baler with cribbing built up to make the baler sit level. It fit through the toll booth at the George Washington bridge with an inch to spare on each side. Best part of the trip was the startled looks of the idiots trying to pass me as they zipped out to the left, then spotted that wheel hanging in midair and thinking the whole contraption was falling off the trailer!

Next to an AllCrop combine the Rotobaler is probably the most difficult to haul. That being said they can be taken apart into 3 major pieces and hauled on a 16 foot utility trailer. You will have to remove the header, the axle and the tongue and the whole thing will fit. Pulling it could be a real nightmare for 500 miles.

I had mine hauled 100 miles by a guy that had a 102" wide trailer and it just fit. I think the trailer would have to be about 20 feet long to get it on comfortably. I know a few guys that have put caster wheels on them and hung the right side over the edge of the trailer.
