I am not sure how this is “for free”. He is paying in wood. If nobody bites, I guess he will have to switch to money. Good chance somebody takes him up on the offer though making it win / win.

What is the problem here?

Because kids sitting behind a computer don't know how to value wood or other resources, so they think because it's not "monies" it must be BS.

I know two guys that would take this down, cut it up, and have it stacked at their sheds for seasoning and eventual sale in half day. That's a mature tree, so it's not a bad deal at all. And I don't see anything about stump removal, so they would get to skip the hard part.

And if the owner then wanted stump removal, they would definitely be given an estimate for that.

Depends on the type of tree of course. But if you had, say, a mature walnut tree, you're gonna have people offer to pay you for the tree and the wood.
