StickyNote Tree Service operates as a locally-owned residential tree contractor in Oklahoma City, handling removal, trimming, pruning, and storm cleanup for single-family homes and small commercial properties. The business specializes in the specific hazards of central Oklahoma's climate: oak wilt management, ice-storm damage recovery, and root systems adapted to clay soil. It sits in the middle tier of Oklahoma City's tree service market, neither the largest franchise operation nor a solo operator, which shapes both pricing and the scope of work it handles.
The company removes trees of varying sizes, prunes and shapes healthy trees, grinds stumps, and clears storm debris. It does not offer specialized services like cabling, deep-root fertilization, or arborist certification for heritage-tree preservation. Most work is cleanup and maintenance rather than landscape design consultation. The business operates year-round, with seasonal demand spikes after Oklahoma's spring ice storms and summer thunderstorms.
Stump grinding runs $150 to $400 depending on diameter and root depth; a typical residential stump 12 to 24 inches across costs $200 to $300. Tree removal is quoted per job based on height, proximity to structures, access difficulty, and debris hauling. Small removals (under 30 feet, clear access, minimal debris) typically fall in the $400 to $800 range; mid-size removals (30 to 60 feet, some complexity) run $1,200 to $2,500; large or hazardous removals require a site visit and can exceed $3,000. Pruning is priced by the hour (approximately $100 to $150 per crew member, usually two-person minimum) or as a flat estimate for a full tree or multiple trees on the property. Call or request an online quote to confirm current rates, as fuel costs and crew availability shift seasonally.
The company charges a service call fee of $75 if no work is performed after the estimate; that fee is waived if you hire them for the job.
Larger regional chains like Davey Tree or local franchise options typically cost 15 to 25 percent more per job but carry broader insurance and bonding, arborist staff, and same-day emergency response guarantees. Solo operators or very small crews in Oklahoma City often undercut StickyNote by 10 to 20 percent but carry inconsistent insurance, longer booking delays, and less predictable cleanup standards. StickyNote sits between: faster scheduling than a one-person operation, lower prices than a major chain, and solid liability coverage for residential properties. Choose StickyNote if you want a balance of responsiveness and value on routine-to-moderate removals; choose a larger operation if you have a protected or heritage tree requiring specialized assessment, or if you need same-day emergency response after a major storm.
StickyNote is well-matched to homeowners with one to four trees to remove or maintain, properties without structural or heritage complications, and budgets that prioritize reliability over the lowest quote. It does not suit customers seeking arborist-level diagnosis (oak wilt risk assessment, soil compaction analysis) or insurance claim coordination for major storm events, where a certified arborist is often required. It is also not the choice for commercial landscaping contracts or properties with multiple trees requiring ongoing maintenance under a single design plan.
Call for an estimate and describe the job: tree size, location, whether removal or pruning, and any obstacles (power lines, nearby structures, septic systems). StickyNote will schedule a site visit, typically within 2 to 5 business days. A crew member walks the property, assesses the work, and emails or texts a written quote within 24 hours. You can accept, ask for clarification, or shop other bids. Once accepted, scheduling depends on crew availability: routine jobs often fit within 1 to 3 weeks; emergency storm cleanups may have longer waits depending on how many storm calls are in the queue.
StickyNote operates Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., with Saturday work available by request for higher fees. There is no walk-in estimate service; all quotes require a phone call or online request. Parking is not a factor (crew arrives in trucks); your driveway or nearby street access is typically sufficient. Confirm hours for current-season scheduling, as winter weather can shift availability.
StickyNote Tree Service fills a genuine gap for Oklahoma City homeowners: experienced enough to handle the region's specific tree problems safely, accessible enough to answer questions without corporate phone trees, and transparent about pricing before the saws start running.
