I am having a very large (60' tall 3.5' diameter) pine tree taken down by a small tree service. I informed the owner/lead tree guy that I would happily take the wood chips for use around my yard and gardens. I was wondering if there were any uses for any other parts of the tree such as longer logs around my property - we have a one acre lot with lawn, gardens and blueberry bushes. Our lot is fenced in, about one half by a wooden stockade fence where we most want privacy , connected to a four foot metal wire fence that keeps our dog in and our neighbors dog out. The owner of the tree service said that he will have the tree down in a day but that he would need another day to remove all the wood. I am certain he would give me a discount off the $2500 bill if I told him he could leave some of the wood behind. Any ideas/suggestions , or should I just get this off of my property?
