Might be getting a RotoBaler and I was wondering if it would fit on a 20' Equipment trailer? Would I need to remove some parts? I would need to move it about 50 miles.

My father and I moved one on a 2 ton grain truck bed once.It barely fit and my dad was nervous as hell.I believe it could be done,but you won't have much room to spare.

Hauled one on a 18' deck trailer about 50 miles, and had cross over the two lane bridge cross the Potomac. Had two foot or so of the feed pick up hanging off the side. It really wasn't that bad, took a good while to get on there. Would have a lot easier if you could lift it on and off. HTH

If your trailer is 8.5' wide which alot of the trailers are out there it will fit quite easily. I sold one of mine on my auction and I have a hole in the front of the loader bucket so that I could just push it on backwards with myself going forward so that I could see both wheels on the baler, ended up being a piece of cake! Ended up being about a 5 minute job to get it on there.

What about just pulling behind my P/U? I wouldn't be on any major roads.

I pulled an orange top home about 50 miles. I just kept the bushings full of grease and the speed down. I think all of the white tops had wheel bearings instead of bushings so it will handle it. Stick to roads with wide shoulders during a slow time for traffic. Unlees you make an offset hitch for your truck, it will hang out to the driver's side.
