BaleWise tracks 33 hay sellers in Tennessee — 15 with listed prices, verified July 23, 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 $257–1011 per US ton across 5 priced listings, with a midpoint of $311/ton. Sticker prices run $6.00–$48.00 per bale — bale weight is what moves the true cost. Round bales: $56–122/ton across 9 priced listings.
