Spread the cost of round balers from £18,000 to £70,000+ with flexible finance options. HP, lease, or refinance
Yes, round balers are financed as a standard asset purchase, usually on hire purchase or a lease, with the machine itself acting as the security. UK prices typically run £18,000 to £70,000, and most deals are written over 12–60 months with a deposit of around 10–20%. Decisions typically take 24–48 hours. Used machines are financeable too, usually with a shorter term.

Guide prices for sizing a finance agreement, not quotes. Manufacturers in this market mostly price on application, so where a current UK list price could not be confirmed the row describes a specification class rather than naming a model. Your supplier quote is what the agreement is written against.

Round balers qualify for Annual Investment Allowance (AIA), letting you deduct the full cost from taxable profits in year one, up to £1,000,000. HP gives access to capital allowances; lease payments are fully deductible from farming profits.
The typical round baler buyer is a livestock or mixed farm making its own hay, haylage, or silage bales, often as a family business or partnership rather than a large contracting operation, alongside dedicated baling and wrapping contractors covering multiple farms. Round balers see concentrated use over a few weeks a year, so lenders and dealers alike track condition through knotter and belt wear rather than calendar age. Because bale-wrapper combinations and fixed-chamber balers from the established manufacturers are in steady demand across the UK and into export markets, used values tend to hold up better than for many other tillage or handling machines.
Some specialist lenders consider businesses with imperfect credit histories. You may need a larger deposit or personal guarantee, but options may be available. Fundably may use a soft credit check for matching, which does not affect your credit score. A hard check may happen if you choose to proceed with a lender.
