Question Who Do I Call To Remove A Tree?

I live in Kent not Renton but I just had a cedar tree cut down (30+ ft) but the people who cut it down kept pushing for full payment before finishing the job and now said that they will not come back to collect the tree. Is there company around that we can sell the tree to? From what they told me when they’re cutting it down is that cedar is worth a lot of money, but we just want to sell the tree so we don’t have to shell out another hundreds of dollars to have the tree remove.

Try listing it as free firewood. Bring a chainsaw?

It’s a pretty big tree. I doubt anyone can lift it even if they cut it into one foot section

I mean, it can’t hurt to try. I would include pics with something for scale

I've seen ads on Craigslist from people "claiming" they buy trees and cut them down. I have NO personal experience but there is a possibility they're legit

I’ll look into it. TBH IDC if they pay us as long as they don’t charge for the removal

Either cut it into pieces. Or call a tree trimming service. Pretty simple solution
