Free Firewood - Help us out here please!!

Free Firewood - Help us out here please!!

We have a tree that is rotting out at the base. It's shedding branches all the time. But it's right by our house. We have so many other things going wrong with our house and cars right now we can't afford to pay someone to cut it down. But you can take all the wood you want from it.
It's about 75' tall. It's kinda like 2 trees in one. It splits at the base and has two main trees coming up. Our insurance deductable is so high, we wouldn't be able to cover it if it did fall on our house. Plus we have TONS of work to do on both of our cars. Not to mention TONS of repairs to our house as well. We really don't have the money to pay you, but we would be more then happy to cover your gas.
Someone please help us out! Not trying to be picky, but would really like someone that's insured and licensed to be able to do the job just in case something bad happened during the cutdown of it. But beggers can't be choosers either. If this is you, please contact us ASAP! Thank you so much!

Dead cedar near power lines and house! Professionals only! Don't everyone run for it at once at once! Because pro's wouldn't charge to take down your trees?

F/S Large Amt of Maple Firewood (Jackson)

Reply to: [email protected] [Errors when replying to ads?]

I will be having a couple of large maple trees cut down in a couple days, they will be leaving the wood for firewood. I will keep some for our firepit outback, I would like to make the rest available to someone who wants to buy it. I was told by a couple people what the wood should be worth, but I'm willing to negotiate a price. The wood will already be cut, all you need to do is negotiate a price and take what you need.

I would like to get something from the wood to help offset the cost I will be paying out to have the trees cut down and shrub cleaned up.

I would also be willing to trade a portion of the firewood for a good air conditioner, a nice working treadmill, or a decent desk top computer set up with wifi hookup.

If you have any interest you may call 517-474-0627.

Let's dissect this one:

"will carry up to 8000lbs on road, 6500lbs off road" - Sure will, but it's not rated for it. Rated at 7150GVW, and weighs 2650 empty.

"tires are new each tire is worth $475 each!" - About $100 higher than what a quick google search showed me.

"can carry 2 cords of wood" - stacked, over the top of the (not that stout) side racks) - box isn't much bigger than a long box P/U.

That's a pretty decent price for one of em though, I see em going for $500-$800 up here.

I have abt 10 cords of Oak wood, I'm asking $100 or BRO for 6 large oak trees. They're abt 80-100 ft tall. valid insurance is needed, as well as you'll be responsible for all damage and cleaning up.

A contract will be signed and money is due upon signing of the contract. I will check with your insurance to make sure it's valid and the amount that it's valid for.
