Craigslist laughs

[Taxmantoo]

the idea that you think someone is going to PAY YOU, to remove YOUR TREES, is absolutely hysterical

Sorry, the system wouldn't let me rep that.

Now, if those were easy drops, and they'd let me CSM them on the spot (does walnut sawdust kill grass?), I'd be all over that for free, and I'd even remove the brush if it wasn't too far away from me. But the way it usually works, they're huge, they're in the medium voltage wires, and there's no drop zone as big as the trees are so they have to come down in pieces with a professional climber.

or the response is: 'well you are wrong as we have done this before, or we have 5 calls, or 10 people waiting, etc.'

what makes this so odd is that the poster will PAY to get the stuff hauled off. and it appears to be large qty of cut rounds. so anyone in that area......

Most likely that he's in the EAB quarantine area, so it's no use to anyone outside of Hennepin or Ramsey county.

Was thinking the same thing when I saw the photos. Good thing I don't have the room or the trailer!

ORIGINAL AD:
*********************
We have about 10 oak trees that need to be cut down. If you can cut and load they are free!
*********************

LET ME EXPLAIN THIS IN PLAIN ENGLISH:

THE FIRST PICTURE IS FIREWOOD.......................

THE SECOND PICTURE ARE TREES.....................

TREES DON'T BECOME FIREWOOD UNTIL IT'S CUT, BUCKED AND SPLIT.

SO JUST ADMIT THAT YOU WANT SOMEONE TO COME TO YOUR PLACE TO CUT DOWN YOUR TREES BECAUSE YOUR TOO CHEAP TO HIRE AN ARBORIST TO DO IT.
I SUPPOSE YOUR GIVING AWAY FREE ROOFING FELT TOO, JUST GOTTA TAKE THE SHINGLES OFF TO GET TO IT!

[Davej_07]

My favorite is when they also want the brush gone and stump removed before you can have the wood.........

As a fellow scrounger I really want to sympathize with this guy, but something tells me he isn't going to get a lot of calls with that attitude.

Wanted FREE Hardwood firewood. Cut, rounds, or whole logs. Must be hard woods, Oak, Hickory, Maple, Locust, Cherry, etc. NO Pine, Evergreens, Popular, rotten, diseased, or insect infested woods. NO trash. Looking for fire wood to burn for heat for the winters and looking for multiple loads.
