Just thought I'd post this since it might be helpful....
My DH and I just moved into our new home and we found out we have two dead 50ft. trees in the backyard. If anyone has received estimates on removing trees you know it's quite pricey.
Anyway, we called a Timber/Lumber company and they are coming to cut & remove the trees for free since they buy trees for fire wood and lumber they were happy to take our trees free of charge.
Just a cost saving tip if anyone needs to have trees removed. I'll let you know how everything turns out once it's done!!!

Re: Getting Trees removed from my backyard for FREE
It did not work out with the lumber company b/c they did not have insurance to come to my town. I ended up using a tree company and we got them removed in November. It's a little cheaper to get trees removed after the summer b/c it's there slow season and willing to negotiate with you a little more. We have 3 willow trees removed ( I belive they were 50ft or so).

How much was it to remove them? We have a pine tree that looks like the bean stalk from jack and the bean stalk....it's huge!

About $3500 but they had to remove bushes and replant bushes (after they were done) to get to the trees. They also had to put seed down in our backyard were they had the machinery. The trees were also by the stream that made things a little more difficult.
They also had to clean up the weeds that had grown to 4ft from the previous owners .
