I've used them several times, using rented baggers. Most renters charge about $750 for the bag (8 or 9 by 150 foot) and use of the machine. That holds about 150 tons of corn silage.

Annual cost of storage is about $5 per ton, less on larger bags, and if you own the machine, it's easier to resell than any silo. Common now in mid-MN to feed year around with bags, skidloader and wheeled TMR- in spite of our winters!
