The Hay Monsters are the best I've seen to date, which is why I keep coming back to them.
It seems few folks have ever heard of them, let alone been around or used one. Found a guy in Kansas who has 3 and he won't part with any of them.
Back when, I might have done 1,000 to 1,200 bales most days and if the haul was short, kids who had one could easily keep up with me running the baler. Would run the snout up under the bale chute and raze me about getting a move on.
Not much good info on them.......here is one of the few youtubes.....
So one driver and two guys stacking on the truck. When you get to the barn, chain conveyors reverse and driver unloads and stackers move to the pile to stack there. Front snout will elevate and there is an bale elevator extension to shoot them into a barn loft or on top of a tall stack. Not much lifting required......stackers don't have to move bales more than a few feet.....more like rearranging them into place.
One guy I talked to said his boys could easily do 2,000 bales per day. They used a crew of 4, but were sometimes handling 80 pound bales, so having a 4th guy meant they could take turns resting so as to not wear down over the course of an afternoon. He said they would do over 100k bales a year with it.

I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery.
