This invention is a mobile, self-propelled machine for picking up bales in the field, and stacking them, and loading them for transport or storage. The stacking of bales for highway transport requires that alternate tiers be formed with the bales placed in different positions with respect to the bales in the adjacent tier, so that ties are formed between the tiers to hold the stack together. A tie is formed by placing the outside bales of one tier in such a position that they overlap the division between two bales of an adjacent tier. My bale stacker and loader picks up the bales from the field, arranges them in seven tiers of eight bales each with the bales in alternate tiers positioned to form the necessary ties to form a transportable 56 bale stack. In addition, my bale stacker and loader is capable of unloading the 56 bale stack onto the ground, a truck bed, or into position in a larger storage stack, and of loading and transporting such a stack of bales.
