Abstract

A wrapping table for receiving and rotating a round bale (10) to be wrapped in which a driveable endless belt (11) forms a support surface for supporting the round bale (10) and is provided with at least one support member (20, 21) arranged beneath the support surface. The support member is moveable so that the support surface is capable of being formed either with a trough-like shape or with a plane-like shape. A plurality of mutually spaced rolls are selectively moveable to shape the support surface. Additionally, a refuse packaging apparatus including such a wrapping table (8) is disclosed.
