1. don't forget to hug it!

[WindRavenX]

2. 1,200 dollars

That's....like...a year's worth of food for me. No kidding.

3. How much was the bulkhead repair?

$1200 to remove a tree? Ouch. I'm glad I don't have any huge trees then. :scared:

[Rabrrrrrr]

4. Can't you cut it down yourself?

Or find a logger who will take it for lumber and pay YOU for it?

[bertha katzenengel]

5. I'm sorry your tree died.

Keeping a piece of it?

6. I Hear Ya....

Had 2 silver maples removed earlier this year. Both had heartwood rot. Not cheap.

[ElsewheresDaughter]

7. is it within 25 feet of the center line of the road?........

if it is it is the responsibility of the highway department to remove it....we had them remove 3 diseased maples from my yard

8. And how many cords of wood will they be able to get out of it?

And sell as firewood? More or less than $1200 worth?

[matcom]

9. its going to my neighbor

we don't have a fireplace but THEY do

THEY are getting the wood. out of MY good heart. and THESE are the neighbors we previously aren't speaking to

how nice am *I*?

:D

15. Oak wood is THE BEST WOOD AROUND....

You could make OAK CHARCOAL with it... (Incredibly gourmet)


You could make a desk out of it!




DONT "give" IT AWAY!

10. Oh, c'mon matcom, chop it down yourself and cut it up for firewood.

You're a strong, youngish man. I'm sure you're up to the task. What could go wrong? :eyes: Just think of all the cozy fires you could have.

I bet you could get a GREAT axe for about $50 bucks.

11. 85 ft. Oak?

Some guys have all the luck. :rofl:

[matcom]

12. biggest tree in my back yard

:eyes:

all the luck i tells ya

[Dukkha]

13. just set it on fire

the fundies will think it's a sign and make a pilgrimage to your house.

ching ching! $$$

This is why I live in a condo. Let the association remove trees, cut my lawn, shovel snow, tile the roof, etc...except I pay a lot for a pool I NEVER get to use. Always full of brats.

[Catchawave]

14. Is it threatening your home?

Serious question 'cuz you'd attract alot of bird species to make that their home :)

Also, that is a fair price for removal, if it includes the roots !

[In_The_Wind]

16. It only cost me $150

guess that's another difference in living in the big city & living in the suburbs

[miss_kitty]

17. better $1200 on removal

than a smashed car, house, person or pet.

Sorry your tree died. do they know why? Was it sudden oak death?
