I need away to handle plastic wrap off round bales and silage bag plastic. I use about 200 wrapped bales and 4 200 ft long silage bags per year. We use to just burn it but the wrap does not burn good and I just never liked the idea. Local township had a dumpster just for this that was being recycled but the program no longer has any funds. The price of a dumpster looks way to expensive. I have an old Deere 14T square baler and was thinking of removing the pickup, all the pto driveline parts and the knotters. I was thinking of putting a hydraulic cylinder to run the plunger and mount a valve on the baler.Then turn it on its side so the opening is up. I was thinking that I could make some wooden blocks with grooves Like the old hand tie balers. I think you could get good bit of plastic in a bale. I have room in the shed next to the bales and figure after baled up it would not take up much room and also would not be blowing around. I could then look for a recycling place or something else to do with it. Any reason why this would be a bad idea? The plunger opening might be a little small but I usually don't have many big pieces.

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
