How much does it cost to hire square bales to be loaded

Well guys I'm not anywhere close to High School Age but I threw hay then and I'll through it now cause Im also a good spell away from the nursing home too!
Besides moneys money and I'm cash poor!

The guy that pays 6 an hour , his brothers also up on the wagon with me and hes mid 50's...

We pay 10 an hr.for all kinds of work to a neighbor teen. If we have to sell hay after its loaded off the trailer into the barn-it's 1 dollar extra per bale.I don't know of anyone that does not charge for delivery.

Since I have everything but the attachment for my Skid Steer I was looking at adding a bale loader to add money to the house hold. The problem is I need 4500 bales to load per year and that is going to be tough here where I am.
I have figured out that any piece of equipment is doable if you can have a pay back in a year. There are ones that don't fit but when you support a toy that doesn't feed itself you are in a position to go broke.
I have the homestead in a paying position but it is always good to be able to diversify some.

My two sons and I loaded a trailer of bales into a shed for a neighbor lady. We were paid a homemade chocolate pudding pie and a plate of homemade cookies. I thought that was fair, and delicious.

Seriously, this is more a job for teens and young adults. Slinging those bales can be hard on the knees and other body parts. But teens will do it for $5 an hour.

you need the accumulator for the baler, also. If your loading trucks you will need some one to lay a tie row for each layer.

I loaded hauled and stacked a good many thousands of square bails for a nickel a bale. Of course we had to fight off dinosaurs... I made enough to keep 25 cent gas in my truck and smokes were30¢ a pack at that time. Haying by the hour was a dollar an hour. I made conciderably better working by the bale.

Ummmmm . . . . . . maybe where you live. But around here minimum wage is $7.25 / hour.

Around here it's hard enough to get teenagers to show up at the local burger place where it's air conditioned.

To ask them to work out in the heat (and it almost always seems to be the hottest when hay is being made) and to pick up and sling heavy bales of hay that are scratchy and dusty . . . . . . I don't know if you could get ANYONE around here to show up for it at $5.00 / hour!

ya but if you absorb the taxes or time to and hassle to file them... all good in my book.

by that logic 6-6.25 is good!

We party our hay help between $12 and $20 pe r hour depending on the conditions and how hard we have to work them.

I pay 50 cents a bale and it works out to about $20 an hour for the kids to help me get the hay out of the field. They show up when ever I call their mom and they are happy to work for me. I think the other lady in town paid $15 an hour but I win when we both need help,

For stacking from a wagon to a building, 10-15 cents a bale. Person should be able to handle 100 bales an hour for 5 hours, with good breaks as part of that. Or not cut out for the job.

If I do it, about $50\bale, if someone else does it, not so much.
