I dont need firewood (I have a propane heater) and I chainsaw my own multi acre yard weekly... its alot of work and I dont LOVE IT , and very dangerous too, especially the rubbish Albizia, Ironwood, Gunpowder, Trumpet, African Tulip, etc. trees (a guy was killed last year in Hilo cutting trees). I am not a Pro at big trees and only have a medium size saw with old chain I need for sharpen a few times a day, and dont have a ton of $$ for gas for my old truck, etc. thats one reason you may not get many responses... (tree cutters make good $$ for a reason, because of the grueling labor involved and extreme danger for man and structures)
Clear cutting small trees/shrubs (ie waiwi, melastoma, schefflera etc.) is easy, but it not "firewood" so Im sure you arent asking for them easy kine..... Big tree like seen in Leilani Estates are for Pros (that whole area is all screwed up w/invasive big ass alien trees)
good luck, I hope you get someone who know what they are doing
aloha
PS please dont cut any Ohia's down just for firewood, they are a very sacred Hawaiian tree, and if you need for cut any, they (large straight ones) are worth good $$ as they are a good hardwood in demand for construction
save our indigenous and endemic Hawaiian Plants... learn about them, grow them, and plant them on your property, ....instead of all that invasive non-native garbage I see in most yards... aloha
