How much will you charge if the customer wants you to cut the tree up and dispose of the wood in the woods? And clean up all the debris The tree is 50-55 feet long and is an ash tree, but I was thinking of saving the usable wood.
The problem I might have is when I cut the logs is going to roll down the hillMoving everything by hand that’s a 2-3 hour job to clean it up nice. $200 if it’s a drive. 100$ if is close and I don’t have to haul my take home wood very far to truck.
Can’t really do that, because we are in a burn ban, so no outdoor burningBurning branches on site would help minimize manual labour if permitted.
She wants me to throw everything in the woods that’s all. I’m just thinking of a price, you think $1500 is to much, she will probably talk it downThe wood doesn't look all that good, I've got plenty dying and falling and it's almost a waste of time cutting them for firewood when I have other good wood to cut. Having to do a complete cleanup adds significantly to the price, if you can't burn it what are you going to do with the scrap?
Or I like an excuse to run saw. If it was my daily job I’d have expenses to cover. Doing a job for a neighbor is different. I assumed that the OP is in the landscape/ tree business.Ebs is cheap ;-)
Rolling logs are easily stopped by positioning pieces like chocks. Do cut from the high side so you don't have stuff running on your feet...
Well I cut my own tress on my property, but I do landscaping on the side for my neighbors,Is it a 3 hour job? What your hourly rate?

What’s a reasonable price then I’ll say 500 because it’s going to take me some time to get everything done$1500 is crazy to charge for cuttyour own firewood and throwing the scrap in the woods in my opinion.
Personally I would do it for the free easy to access wood..What’s a reasonable price then I’ll say 500 because it’s going to take me some time to get everything done
