Many people want to have someone pay them to remove trees from their property. There are many problems they face:
*Tree removal companies are not interested paying the owner in small jobs, such as a few acres of trees, as their costs in insurance, machinery and workers is high.
*Some companies may be interested in a larger project if they do not pay the owner, however, you might find that the company then sells the lumber to lumber companies.
*Insurance liabilities on both sides can be very high as the tree removal companies must carry high insurance costs for injury to workers and property and the owner may face injury and damage costs.
So, an answer to your question is not simple. You may find a possibility by putting an ad on Craigslist but you still face all the issues above.
A caveat here - be careful not to provide the property address or even general location to any company or person you might find from Craigslist, etc., before signing a contract. You may find that someone has removed the trees from your property without your knowledge.
If you just want the trees gone, but don't want any money, consider donating them. You can set it up so an energy assistance program can come in and cut them down for firewood. Here's a link that might help. PBP
