Pallets, custom made to move hay on.

Not sure if best place to post this but:

 

Have never moved a bale of hay with a machine but allowing my mind to wander here: if you stack hay on pallets to keep them dry seems to me this might be reasonable.

 

Why not make custom size pallets that would be suitable to handle the hay as you stack it. (I am thinking the 10 small square bale used by some grapples) You could place the pallet on trailer for loading with grapple and then at the barn use forks to move the stack into place. Setting on the floor or if need be stacked on top of another stack to get the height you want. Would cut down on the trips with grapple between the trailer and the barn. If loading for customer you could use grapple to save the pallet or if you will be making the delivery then load pallet already stacked.
