My neighbor has a big white oak tree in her yard, but it's too much money for her to afford to have someone cut it down. How can I find someone to help her with this?

Tree cutting is hard work abs requires expensive equipment. You may find someone at a church who will offer his services, but it is going to be hard to find someone
Okay thank you for the information it will be passed on to her.

- Is the tree on public property? See if there is any program to have the tree removed for free.
- You can see if anyone would be interested in a barter.
Good luck to your neighbor!
Tree work on private property is very expensive and since it is a dangerous job that requires a lot of knowledge about how to even start the cutting as well as insurance (homeowners?), license, and maybe even a city or county permit to even remove the tree it will be difficult to find someone willing to do this for free.
Tree cutting also requires expensive equipment as the clean up is usually just as big a job as cutting down the tree.
If the tree is very close to a house/building it will require an even more knowledgeable person to do the job. As a general rule, the closer a tree is to a building the more expensive the job and residential property can have power lines, sidewalks, driveways, landscaping (in the yard and public property) that requires experienced tree personnel.
She may be able to find someone that will take payments but I seriously doubt that is even possible.
If a tree is dead, rotting, has several dead branches, a broken and unstable trunk, or grows too close to power lines or an existing structure, arborists typically advise removing the tree.
The average cost of removing trees is around $500 to $10,000. There are variables to consider when determining the cost, such as accessibility, species, size, urgency, and location

I would recommend getting a tree specialist that has experience removing a problematic tree safely and efficiently without harming the rest of your home.
