[QUOTE="gcreekrch, post: 1782878, member: 14161"] I prefer to weigh every load and pay by the ton. Too much variance in balers, operators and crops. Some guys can make 1800 lbs + 5x6 bales, others rake a huge windrow and drive 10 mph and get 1300 lbs. Truckingis a set rate, the closer you can get to legal weight the cheaper your delivered ton price is. We are getting a load of big squares tomorrow, 52 bales x1300 lbs, just shy of 34 ton. Delivered cost is $241.50 per ton. It came from 10.5 hours away and is delivered cheaper than a lot of closer hay from sellers that still think it is last winter, [/QUOTE]
