In 99% of cases you cannot trim the height of a palm tree without killing it. Palms are moncotyledonous, this means they have one growth point or apical bud; this is located in the centre of the fronds and produces the new fronds. If this is damaged the plant cannot grow any more and will eventually die.
You do however also get "clump-forming" plams, in this case the taller plants can be removed and the smaller ones left to grow up and replace the ones removed

I have a palm tree in my yard that I want to get rid of. A co-worker suggested I sell it. Who can you sell a palm tree to?
Call your local landscaping or architectural landscaping firms and they may be interested. Mature trees sometimes fit into a scheme better than young trees.You can sell it to anyone. Just trim it up nicely (only the lower half of the branches or fronds). If you trim above this, it will injure the tree. Take a nice picture and list it on your local Craigslist as "You dig and it's yours." If you did a good jobtrimming it and took a nice picture, it'll be gone in no time. Alternatively, you can also just keep the palm! You may want after seeing how much better it looks nice and trimmed up!
