I just had a large pine cut down because it was struck by lightning.
The guy that took it down said that he has to pay to dump the pine
because no one will take the pine wood.

I would think you could take it to a paper plant. Anyone know for
sure?

Best solution -- have trees trimmed or removed by a company that has a
chipper, have them chip up the material as it is cut down, then have them
leave it behind for you to use as mulch.
