BC SeriesBale Carrier
Round bale wagons up to 24’ long for hauling large round and square bales.
One load. Unload. Two loads. Unload. Three loads. Unload…We all know how boring hauling hay can be. That’s why we’re always looking for the fastest way to get it done (especially if there’s rain on the way)! When we’re trying to get hay bales off the field in a hurry, we want two things from our bale carriers: haul as many bales as safely possible and don’t break in the middle of the job.
When it comes to transporting bales as quickly as possible, we have some of the best bale carriers available for small to mid-size farms. With sizes for hauling 8-12 round bales or up to 27 square bales (heavy-duty models only), our bale carriers can get hay off the fields quickly and efficiently. And another benefit for smaller operations? Farmco round bale wagons cost a fraction of the price of more high-tech hay transport equipment, like self-loading trailers.
Helping a neighbor haul hay or switching to a different bale dimension? Farmco bale carriers use adjustable cross members, allowing them to be configured for specific bale types. Simply unbolt the cross members, slide them to the necessary spacing, and retighten. A 5-degree upward bend of the cross members prevents bales from walking off the sides of the bale carrier during pick up or transport. Note that our bale carriers are available with or without the running gear. (We also have a series of heavy-duty round bale carriers and a low-profile round bale hauler.)

Standard Features
Every bale carrier from Farmco is built with heavy-gauge reinforced steel and first-rate welding. Each round bale wagon is coated with a two-part polyurethane paint. Coatings are applied using electrostatic charges to ensure even coverage over the entire bale carrier.
In addition, Farmco’s round bale wagons come standard with:
3″x5″ main beams to support heavy loads. (For an even stronger design, check out our heavy-duty round bale carriers.)
Adjustable cross members.
A 5-degree bend in the cross members to prevent bales from rolling off.
An extendable tongue for easy hookup and variable towing lengths.
A spring-assisted tongue for easy lifting.
Cold-rolled axle spindles and greaseable hubs on all wheels.
An automotive-style steering assembly.
15×8 or 15×10 rims with valve stem guards (15×10 shown).

Farmco’s round bale wagons are also available:
Without the running gear, allowing the bale carrier to be mounted on your own set up.
