The Job
There's a reason trampoline removal is such a regular call in this part of the state — Oklahoma wind is hard on anything with a frame and a mat, and trampolines take the worst of it. We get calls after a spring storm rolls a trampoline into a fence line, after a gust flips one onto its side against a tree, or just from frames that have slowly bent and rusted over several seasons of sitting out through hail and heat. Whatever shape it's in when we arrive, we take it apart and haul it away.
A bent or storm-damaged trampoline is actually more work to remove than a trampoline that's simply old, because the frame tubing is often warped in ways that make the normal disassembly order impossible. Legs that used to unbolt cleanly might now be crushed against each other, and springs that were already rusted solid can snap unpredictably once tension releases. Our crew approaches every damaged frame carefully, cutting through tubing when bolts won't budge rather than forcing a connection that could let go suddenly.
We see this across every part of the metro — tight backyards near the central core, sprawling yards out toward the edges of the city, everywhere in between. The common thread is always the same: once a trampoline gets damaged or the kids stop using it, it becomes dead weight taking up yard space that could be used for something else. We clear it out completely, springs and mat and all, so there's nothing left to trip over or mow around.
A trampoline that's been through a wind event behaves differently than one that just aged out gracefully. Frame tubing bends in ways that put unexpected pressure on joints, which means bolts can be nearly impossible to back out by hand even when they weren't rusted beforehand. We've learned to expect this across the metro, where spring and early summer storms regularly leave trampolines on their sides or wedged against fences, sheds, and trees after a gust catches the mat like a sail.
Rust is the other constant factor here. Oklahoma's swing between humid summers and freezing winters is rough on trampoline springs and frame joints, and springs that have been outside for several years are often seized solid or snapped partway. We treat every spring as if it's under full tension until we've confirmed otherwise, because a rusted spring letting go unexpectedly can do real damage to a hand or a face. This is honestly the main reason people call us instead of handling it themselves — the springs are the part nobody wants to deal with.
Whether your trampoline needs to go because a storm finished it off or because the kids simply moved on to other things, the removal process and the care we put into it stay the same. Contact us for a free quote. Call or text 405-566-9730.
How It Works
Text 405-566-9730 a few photos, and let us know if the frame is bent, if it flipped in a storm, or if it's just old and worn out. Damaged frames sometimes need extra care during disassembly, so knowing ahead of time helps us bring the right tools for the specific job.
Rusted springs under tension are one of the more dangerous parts of this job, so our crew removes them first using proper spring-pulling tools rather than pliers or bare hands. This step alone is why a lot of homeowners would rather call us than tackle it themselves.
Once the springs are clear, we unbolt or cut apart the frame legs, pull the safety net poles, and fold or cut the mat and netting down to manageable pieces. Bent frames sometimes need a reciprocating saw where bolts have seized from rust or impact damage.
We collect every spring, bolt, and leg cap along with the frame itself — small metal hardware scattered in the grass is a real hazard for bare feet and mower blades, so we're thorough about it. The yard is left clear and walkable when we leave.
Why Anthony's
A trampoline spring under tension is more dangerous than most people realize, especially after years of rust weakens the metal unpredictably. Our crew handles every spring as though it could let go without warning, using the right tools instead of guessing.
We regularly remove trampolines that got twisted or flipped in a wind event, where normal unbolting doesn't work because the frame has warped. Cutting tools and patience get the job done without us forcing a joint that could snap loose suddenly.
Small hardware like leg caps, bolts, and spring hooks has a way of scattering into the lawn during teardown. We make a point of sweeping the whole footprint before we leave so nobody steps on a stray piece months later.
Questions
Yes, and this is actually one of our more common calls after a windy spring in the metro. A bent frame just means the disassembly order changes a bit — we often need to cut through tubing with a reciprocating saw where impact has crushed joints together rather than relying on bolts backing out cleanly. We still remove the whole thing, springs, net, mat, and frame, in one visit regardless of how twisted it got.
Completely normal, and honestly it's the main reason most people call us rather than tackling a trampoline teardown themselves. Rusted springs under tension can snap or release unpredictably, and we treat every single one carefully using proper spring-removal tools designed for exactly this situation. You don't need to touch the springs at all — our crew handles that part from start to finish.
We take the entire structure, including the safety netting, the net poles, the padding around the frame edge, and the jumping mat itself, not just the main metal frame. A lot of trampoline setups have more parts than people expect once you start counting the net poles and foam padding pieces, and we make sure all of it leaves on the truck so you're not left with scattered leftover parts in the yard.
Yes, in-ground trampolines are a bit more involved since the frame sits below grade in a dug-out pit, but we handle those as well. We pull the mat, springs, and frame ring out of the pit and can discuss options for the hole itself, whether that's leaving it open for you to fill later or doing a basic fill if you'd like that included as part of the job.
We understand storm debris often needs to go quickly, especially if a damaged trampoline is blocking a gate, leaning against a fence, or posing a tripping hazard in the yard. We prioritize these calls when we can and typically get storm-related trampoline removals scheduled within a day or two of the call, sometimes the same day depending on our route.
