The three things that quietly kill tree care margin.
The removal quote loses to whoever texts back first.
Tech assesses the tree, takes the photos, says they'll text the quote that night. By the time it goes out, the homeowner already accepted a cheaper bid from the next guy with the cheaper insurance.
Wind reschedules ruin three days of route planning.
Thursday's forecast turns. Crane work needs to move. The crew, the chipper, the bucket truck, and four customers all need rescheduling. The phone rings off the hook and two customers cancel instead of moving.
The crane day got billed at completion. Three weeks later.
Multi-day removal. Crane on day one, sectional takedown day two, cleanup day three. Final invoice goes out after cleanup. The $640 crane rate sits on the books for three weeks while you wait for the customer to mail a check.
Two different businesses. One software that handles both.
Residential runs on same-week removals and on-site quoting. Commercial runs on multi-property HOA contracts, recurring trim schedules, and Net-30 invoicing. One software, two operational realities.
- Same-week scheduling for removals, trimming, and stump grinding
- On-site quoting from the driveway with deposit collected on accept
- Per-tree and specialty equipment pricing from the pricebook
- Two-way customer SMS and on-the-way notifications
- Customer portal with service history and invoices

When the oak takes two days, the project record holds both.
Large commercial trim work, multi-tree removals, and storm cleanup don't fit in a single workday. ServTrackr's project records span multiple days with phased billing, day-by-day crew assignment, and crane scheduling on the day it's needed.
- Multi-day projects with day-by-day crew and equipment assignment
- Crane day scheduled on the day it's actually needed (not paid for upfront across the project)
- Phased billing across the project (deposit, mid-project, completion)
- Project status visible to the office and the customer
Wind in the forecast? The schedule knows before the crew rolls.
ServTrackr pulls the forecast for every scheduled job. When high wind, severe weather, or unsafe conditions cross the threshold, the affected jobs get flagged and customer reschedule texts can go out before the truck leaves the yard.
- Forecast pulled per job address, day of service
- Weather thresholds set per work type (climbing, crane, ground crew)
- Affected jobs flagged 24 hours before the schedule
- One-click reschedule with customer text confirmation

Common tree care questions.
Most tree care shops are quoting on the iPad and dispatching from ServTrackr inside the first week. Bring your customers, HOA accounts, and pricebook from a CSV or your previous system. There is no IT engagement and no six-week onboarding.
Yes. The pricebook holds per-tree pricing for removal by size, trimming by tree type, and stump grinding by diameter, alongside per-day specialty equipment rates for the crane, bucket truck, and chipper. Both kinds of line items live on the same on-site quote.
Yes. Walk the property, photograph the trees, pick per-tree pricing and equipment from the pricebook, the estimate builds itself on the iPad. Customer signs in the driveway, deposit collects on accept, and the estimate converts to a scheduled job in one click.
Yes. Project records span multiple days with day-by-day crew assignment and equipment scheduling. The crane gets scheduled on the day it is actually needed, not paid for upfront across the whole project.
Yes. Multi-property accounts run with PO numbers, Net-30 terms, and AR tracking. Recurring trim contracts auto-generate jobs and auto-invoice on the cadence you set. Service history is kept per property so the HOA manager sees each property's tree work in one place.
Yes. ServTrackr pulls the forecast for every scheduled job. When wind or severe weather crosses the threshold you set per work type (climbing, crane, ground crew), the affected jobs get flagged and customer reschedule texts can go out before the truck leaves the yard.
Yes. The mobile app captures quotes, photos, signatures, and job completion offline and syncs the moment the truck is back in coverage. The on-site quote does not stop because the property has no signal.
