About 25' high. Buyer has to dig it out and move it. What do you think
I
ought to get for it ? (upstate NY) My neighbor thinks at least $100.


Dig it out? It's only use would be lumber and at only 25' high there won't
be much usable wood. Good for firewood.


You have to be nuts to burn a Walnut tree. Full grown Walnut trees are
going for over $1500 here for lumber.
Dig it out - you might be picturing digging by hand. That's not the way
trees are moved. There is a hydraulic clamshell type device that mounts on
the back of a tractor for digging trees out.
