BaleWise tracks 25 hay sellers in Pennsylvania — 19 with listed prices, verified July 26, 2026. Every price is normalized to true cost per US ton (2,000 lb) so a heavy bale and a light bale compare honestly.
Small square bales run $133–486 per US ton across 9 priced listings, with a midpoint of $223/ton. Sticker prices run $3.00–$8.50 per bale — bale weight is what moves the true cost. Large squares: $300–625/ton across 2 priced listings. Round bales: $67–222/ton across 5 priced listings.
