    Just gotta drop it. Dont you hate those posts? Lol

    Well if you're interested I have a dead as of this season tree. I think its oak. It was alive last year. The right half has leaves.

    If you can drop it safely its yours to take. it's right by the road so easy access to truck. On cul deal sac. Underground power. Only real thing to worry about is the power box. If you get hurt or break stuff I dont know who you are or why this crazy guy is in my yard....

    In Bristol ct. Ping me if interested.

    nope, not on that side of the state. if they have to get rid of it at the dump its like $250/truckload. lots of tree companies and all NG over there.

    Yep no strings except whatever damage is done during the drop is yours. You can even request and get them cut to no more than 16". (Although that does decrease their willingness if they got someone who isn't so particular about length waiting for a load too.). One guy will even fill my saw for me so I can do whatever necessary trimmin is needed and not have the rest of a gallon of mix go stale.

    And they happened to be in the mood to make 16" cuts today. Nice load of Red Oak. But it almost went to the wrong house. The guys who dropped it had never been here and the owner gave them my neighbors address by mistake. They backed into their driveway and fortunately were smart enough to figure out that something wasn't right before unloading.

    comments like these could make a guy consider New Jersey as a place to live. Some people get oak rounds delivered to their house for free JEEZ,:thumbs:

    Full service is not a perk. I hate it that i have to give my card to someone else who could easily double swipe it and store the number in a reader, let some guy over-tighten my cap, dribble on my paint, and in general not give a F about my car. I avoid getting gas in jersey at all possible costs when i'm travelling.

    is it truly full service? or are they just required to pump it for you like in Oregon?
