Here's what I do with leave's. Mulch.............I own a lawn, not tree service and I have customers asking all the time :Aren't you going to rake before you mow? I say "Nope" I use grasshopper equipment fitted with Oregon Gator Magnum blades and let me tell ya nothin comes out that deck that doens't look like confedy. Or if all else failed bag it. I'm not a tree hugger and I just cut down one similiar to your's away from my house about 60ft. Why? Cause it was in my damn way and was outta place to the rest. It grew small stringy branches down to the ground and I kept catching my head on it. It knock's my hat off, I knock it down, that's the rule in my yard. I already had too many trees out there. I do believe maintance if you have the equipment, but not of us do. I also think big tree's are great as long as they can't fall during a storm into the house and do severe damage. What I mean by severe is people getting hurt possibly killed. I won't risk my life or my wife's or my kids lives on some damn tree. Tree's grow back!!! What you found here is arborits. They get paid to cut tree's and like any job you hate to do it for free at home that's why your getting so much resistance. If there boss told them to cut the tree. Bygod they'd cut the damn tree. By the way I only cut trophy trees. I don't like to waste time making firewood. The bigger the better.
