Tree Removal (Getting paid by selling)

[Jeff Lee]

Does anyone have any experience or knowledge in regards to having a tree removed and trying to sell it to XYZ company for a little bit of firewood profit?

I've got this one big that's going to be removed on 10/1.

If it's a cottonwood tree then you've got almost no chance of finding somebody who wants it imo... It's just about the worst firewood and if somebody wants to mill soft wood then they'll just cut down a pine with a 30ft straight trunk.

I don't know much about chinese tallow but some people make bowls out of the wood.... still sounds like it'd be hard to find a buyer.

Still... if you've got more time than money you can call around.  If it were me, knowing that's its extremely unlikely to be marketable, I'd pay somebody to haul it off.
