Nothing wrong with pine,its great infact.But looks like the homeowner is not only too cheap to pay a reputable tree service,but is clueless as well.
 
It's a good thing he offered his help. I like the four stories high for a measurement too.
 
Well, he is trying...

2 full-size cottonwood trees - you cut and remove and the wood is yours. Must be bonded and insured to do the work. If interested email Ben.
 
Don't you love the ads - next to house - must be bonded and insured - junk wood - and i wont pay you
 
This one has been popping up for close to a week now, just to the north of me (I am on the border):

FREE - Oak Wood/Firewood - You Cut Down - FREE to take! (Blue Earth)
I have a HUGE oak tree I need removed right by my home. There is a lot of firewood in this tree! If you can cut it down without damaging anything you can have the wood FREE!
This tree will have many truckloads worth of wood. Hundreds of $$$ worth. I just don't have the lift truck to get me high enough. Contact me by cell either call or text...<phone number tastefully removed by me>
Thanks.

I finally texted the guy and told him he probably won't get anyone to bite due to liability issues and that his best bet would probably be to pay to have it dropped and then give it away. Of course, I never heard back.
