We do use them more than we used to . Our baler is old and slow.
Going back to reliability point ... we find that giving plenty of notice and paying up within a couple of days brings reliability . If they can't get to us they will say and I have never had a problem of saying "yes we will do it" and then not turning up,unless there is a breakdown but we will get regular updates . Can't ask more than that .

£3 bale around here, some even take the farmers diesel on top of that.
£1.50 to wrap on to of that ( not including wrap )

Anyone on hear with a McHale baler? What should pressure be set at before the net drops in?
We've got a brand new one and I'm sure it makes worse bales than our old one of a different breed
