I could see a guy having problems burning it, if that was all you were burning. Perhaps you should try to burn it with other stuff. Brush pile, or small amounts in your household trash, or wood burning stove. Anything that you can kind of blend it with when burning.
Plastics sometimes can be about like burning books or magazines. One book or magazine thrown into a fire will burn really well. But a whole burning barrel full of books don't burn worth a dang. You can kind of have this same effect when burning plastics. Avoid burning nothing but and only plastics, is really the solution.
I'm not sure that I would dismantle a baler and try to set something up just to see if it would work. I'm actually thinking that it would be about as likely to not work (or not work good enough), than likely have something that worked when you got done. But, ... if you got a baler that you wont bale straw or hay with again, and you got some time on your hands, then go for it.
I remember one time somebody was going to use a trash compacter to smash aluminum cans in. Nothing but cans and only cans. It didn't turn out well. It smashed em all right. But you couldn't hardly get em out of there once they were smashed. Concept worked, but it was one of those deals that it really wasn't worth doing. More grief getting the smashed cans out of there than it was to just smash em some other way.
