People just are unwilling to take free stuff. Im always trying to give away free semen and I do most of the work to boot.
The boot may be your problem.
Yeah, most people use a sock
In the US it’s called a “trunk”.
I am not sure how this is “for free”. He is paying in wood. If nobody bites, I guess he will have to switch to money. Good chance somebody takes him up on the offer though making it win / win.
What is the problem here?
I DEFINITELY know tree guys that would do this. Especially if it’s oak, walnut, or some other decent wood.
Hell, even my neighbor (who is a retired tree guy) will regularly take down trees for me that he then uses for firewood. I just have to do clean up.
Pssh, amateur.
I know four guys
Pffft, imagine only knowing four guys.
I mean technically, if they aren’t getting paid I think that makes them (and me) amateurs.
I think it’s not so bad. That’s quite a lot of wood.
Generally, wood within human spaces isn’t usable in construction. The issue is nails and such that the tree grows around and incorporates. The human-made objects lodged within tend to chip the very expensive saws and such used to commercially process large trees. Artisans often don’t mind it and work around the issues if they want a particular piece of wood, but you’d need to advertise harder than a single Craigslist post to find one to take your entire tree.
$2000 seems like alot of money to cut a tree, i got multiple trees cut down for £600
It depends on how close it is to the house. I’m in a low cost of living area in the US and my neighbor has a tree that’s going to be over $3k to bring down. If it can’t be felled they have to bring in a crane and take it apart one piece at a time. Lots of equipment costs and very skilled and dangerous work
There are a ton of variables involved in pricing. Every case is different.
Different country, different costs I’d imagine.
Why do people have to fuck around with trees? Screw your deck, bro.
I am confused on why this cant work.
Surely cutting down trees for wood can be profitable, otherwise capitalism wouldn’t be doing it.
Is it so hard for a professional firm to also source their wood from urban areas to save a tree elsewhere?

If they lived like a block away from a Lumbermill willing to buy Aspen then I would consider it.
