We had a termite-infested tree in our back yard, and it had long been dead. Yesterday Dad came around to continue cleaning out his room and took the time to poke the tree with a stick. The amount of trunk that he removed from the remains of the tree unfortunately caused a little too much structural instability, and it crashed down a little while later.
Now the black ants and termites are fighting for territory in the back yard (current odds favour the black ants) and I need to figure out how to remove a hulking great tree from the back yard. I could hire a skip to do so, but that's likely all it would be used for. Seems like a waste. Also, the pieces are large and would still need to be cut up, even with a skip. My usual strategy for dealing with these problems is to take the wheelie bin to the back yard and stuff in as much as I can on the day before rubbish day.

PS - It's a slow process, but as long as I stick with it, everything is okay.

You can keep at it and if it is not complete when Mal gets home. He can chain saw it and we have a place to dispose of it properly
