However you can't blame the OP for asking, and no need to be rude (we're not being rude but sometimes threads go that way). OP wants the trees removed, and then sees people selling wood for hundreds, B&Q doesn't help here either, 2m 20mm square piece of oak for £10? must be able to get hundreds out of a tree.... without realising the expenses and waste produced to get that nice piece of timber.

 

Might be that someone should make a sticky thread just listing all he things that have to happen to get that nice valuable tree out of the back garden and into a saw mill, all the pitfalls and all the reasons why the wood looses value or is rejected straight to the maybe firewood pile. Might be the second post in that thread can do the same why that tree in the back garden isn't going to be worth £100 a ton as firewood as it stands.

 

but till then home owners will see that tree in the garden and think "That needs to go, bet there is value in the wood, maybe enough to pay for a 3 or 4 person team to carefully dismantle it, and get it to the roadside ready for collection"
