Find someone that cuts and sells firewood. They may be interested in your trees.

Not sure about there but here the guys who sell firewood process the stuff the builders drop off. A few houses in the area heat with wood and the tree people give it to them. They still have to cut up the logs and split it. It might be of some value to the commercial firewood guys but they don't pay much. The next door neighbor has a couple tree cutters drop logs at his place. I know he doesn't pay for it. He spends the summer cutting it and splitting it.

Agreed, probably not gonna sell trees for firewood.
Be VERY careful about having somebody else out to cut trees for firewood. If they damage something or are injured on your property, that could come back on you. Might be wise to sell it for $1 and have a contract that holds you harmless. OR, depending on how that's defined, might be wise to not charge anything. In Ohio, for example, if you give permission for free hunting on your property, you are all but immune from liability (aside from malice or neglect, etc...). Those protections go away if you charge. Those are probably a better question for one of our resident legal experts.

Yes................common sense should kick in and always ask for proof of insurance from anyone working on your property.
