Thanks, and good reply. I will be cutting and baling some strips of hay before the season starts so I can become familiar with how everything works.

I will not be unloading the hay -- I drop off the wagon and wait for them to clear it off. Otherwise it's $70/hr for me to help out.

I'm wondering if I should maybe avoid such a large job. I do have other customers who want smaller orders (under 500). Perhaps it would be wise to stick with a manageable size in the beginning? I'm not getting into haying to make money, only to cut my own, so I don't care about any (potential) profits just yet.
