Looks like there's plenty of room for it right where it sits. Or is it just me?

Please tell me I am the first to post this. Is there a prize?

How do you cut down one tree and get FIVE stumps? By the way, bring something to cut it with, "a chainsaw or something". Or something?

"free firewood. we cut down a tree and have five big stumps. take a couple or take all. you will need a chainsaw or something to cut it up."

Looks like there may be 5 big trunk rounds from the same tree. I think I would show up with a splitter or at least a maul and some wedges.

Apparently, cottonwood is good for everything. Firewood, furniture, and smoking meat. Doesn't green cottonwood smoke smell like cat pee?

" We had a large five trunk cottonwood tree removed in early spring this year and the tree service cut it into several sections of large pieces, medium pieces, and smaller pieces and small logs. I took pictures of the different sections.

I started cutting some of the small and medium pieces into firewood and it cuts nicely and is dry. I gave some to my neighbor across the street and he burns it for his firepit and his wood smoker. He says it is excellent wood.

Price is $50 per truckload and you can back your pickup right up to it. I can also help load if you are taking the bigger heavier pieces. Some will take two people to lift.

If you want it all, make me an offer and I can help you load it.

See the pictures below

Picture one -- large pieces -- very heavy and some are 4 feet in diameter. These could make good furniture or table tops.

Picture two -- firewood I cut from some of the smaller pieces -- if interested in more firewood than this, let me know and I can cut some more.

Pictures three and four -- medium and small pieces -- these can be sold as is or cut into firewood.

Picture five -- a stack of mostly small, thin logs that they guys cut up from the branches. These make good standalone pieces of firewood."
