High-compression balers and methods for forming bales are disclosed. An exemplary baler (10) comprises a baling chamber (26) configured to receive the material. The baling chamber is formed by a pair of end plates (30a, 30b) defining the longitudinal ends of the baling chamber, and a driven endless belt (28) guided by a plurality of rollers (36, 37, 40, 44, 50). The endless belt defines a periphery of the baling chamber. An exemplary method comprises providing an endless belt around at least a driven roller (40) and a tilt roller pair (36, 37), receiving the material in a baling chamber (26) through a throat (24) formed between the driven roller (40) and the tilt roller pair (36, 37), increasing the pressure applied by the endless belt (28) to the material, and securing the material in the baling chamber with netting (60) to form the bales (20).
