    That looks like a 4x4 bale my guess is ~ 500lbs. They do make larger but they wouldn’t fit in that shitbox.

      True that doesn’t look like it was rolled super tight. The 4x4s we used to buy were around 800-900lbs as our hay guy actually knew what he was doing. Now we get 4x5s and they’re around 1100lbs and my tundra still can handle them no problem when I am lazy and don’t want to drive one out with the tractor.

        Jeezus I must be superman then. We have 4x4 and i flip them over when they tip on their flat side all the time . I figured they were around 500Lbs ( mayby a little more 🤷‍♂️)

        I guess I was wrong , I underestimated the size of the cubby hole on that truck thingy

          Naa gravity helps a ton. I flip the 4x5s over as well, and before we had a tractor I’d roll them out into the fields. Not fun but not impossible if you’re in shape.

            I worked in a trade where if a person could make it move we did not consider it heavy 😁. I just never put much thought into their weight honestly, i guess its somethingi should know.

            I enjoy rolling them around , it’s usually faster than going to get the tractor
