Snow Removal Software

When six inches hits overnight, the board is the business. VortechPro routes Platinum plow crews first, maps who is closest with open truck capacity, keeps salting and skid-steer work on Specialist flags, and closes Stripe with cleared-lot photos before the next cell arrives.

Storm surge without
a contract PDF as the hero.

Seasonal contracts and trigger depths can live in your account stack. Overnight accumulation, salt vs plow splits, and HOA lot density need Platinum first refusal, closest-crew GPS, Specialist equipment routing, and cleared-lot photos tied to the job — not a group chat that freezes when the next band hits.

01 · Storm-Surge Plow Dispatch

Closest crew with open capacity. Fastest accept before the next band.

When accumulation crosses your trigger, VortechPro pings your Platinum crews first with a short exclusive window — about 30 seconds — then falls back to Gold and Silver so lots do not sit buried in a text thread. Live GPS keeps the nearest available plow in view across HOA, commercial, and one-time residential stops so you assign by proximity and truck status — not whoever unlocked their phone first.

  • Uber-style Platinum / Gold / Silver tiered routing
  • ~30-second exclusive window for your best crews
  • Live GPS map — assign by proximity across the storm board
  • Loud mobile alerts with distance + accept / call / navigate

Navigate to the lot
A buried lot is not
a group-chat agenda.

Overnight triggers, salt-only callbacks, and HOA complaints land in one thread while trucks are mid-pass. Wrong equipment. No map. Cleared-lot photos the property manager asked for are still on someone’s phone while the next cell builds.

Storm texts bury the board

Triggers fire at 3 AM. Three leads argue who is closer while a truck is already half-full of salt. The HOA lot waits while the chat scrolls past the address.

Salt hits a plow-only truck

A brine or sidewalk skid-steer job hits a plow crew without the right gear. Without Specialist flags, every ping looks like another parking lot — until ice callbacks start.

Capacity and fuel guesswork

You hope the next truck still has salt, fuel, and blade time. Staging notes live in someone’s head until the crew turns around empty mid-route.

One-time jobs unpaid

Cash-only or “bill after the thaw” leaves money on a cleared driveway. Charge the card on the phone, attach cleared-lot photos, send an SMS receipt — close it before the next stop.

02 · Salt + Plow Board

Tonight’s surge and tomorrow’s ice touch-up on one board.

Run storm-surge plow routes alongside scheduled salting, brine, and skid-steer sidewalk work from the same platform. Dispatch now or schedule any day and time. Job-tied chat carries lot notes, salt levels, and equipment status — so the second pass after a refreeze does not live in a buried supervisor thread.

  • Immediate storm dispatch + scheduled salt / ice touch-ups
  • Tiered routing on every outbound lead
  • Office-to-crew chat tied to the lot
  • Notes for salt/fuel, blade status, and access gates

03 · Get Paid at the Lot

Stripe on the phone. No terminal chase after the plow pass.

Snow visits often end in a cold driveway or empty lot. Crews charge the customer card in the VortechPro app via Stripe — on the phone they already carry. Funds land in your own Stripe account. Pair payment with cleared-lot photos and an SMS receipt so one-time and storm visits close before the next cell hits.

  • In-field card charge via Stripe on the phone
  • Money to your Stripe account — we never hold it
  • SMS receipt + photo proof on the same job
  • Less “bill after the thaw” chase after one-time clears

salt runs & HOA lots.

No Feature Add-Ons. Everything below ships at $99/mo for 5 techs — built around overnight triggers, equipment Specialist routing, and cleared-lot proof.

Storm-Surge Dispatch

Push immediate jobs when accumulation crosses your trigger. Loud alert, distance, accept — then call and navigate.

Platinum / Gold / Silver

Uber-style tiers with a ~30-second exclusive window so your best crews get first refusal before overflow.

Closest-Crew GPS

Live map so lots go to whoever is nearest with capacity — not whoever replies in the storm thread first.

Salt & Skid-Steer Routing

Specialist-only flags for brine/salt and sidewalk skid-steer so plow-only trucks never get the wrong ping.

Salt & Fuel Notes

Job-tied chat for salt levels, fuel, blade status, and gate codes so second passes are planned — not guessed.

Cleared-Lot Photo + SMS Receipt

Document the clear, send the receipt, close the stop with a trail HOAs and homeowners can read.

Stripe on the Phone

Collect card payments in-app at the lot. No separate terminal required. Funds to your Stripe account.

Surge + Touch-Up Board

Overnight plow surge and next-day ice touch-ups on one platform — without mixing them into one noisy thread.

Snow removal software
questions.

Straight answers for owners evaluating dispatch software for snow removal — storm surge, salt vs plow, and HOA lot density.

What is snow removal software?
Snow removal software helps plow and ice-control companies dispatch storm-surge routes, salting runs, and HOA or commercial lots — route the closest available crew with live GPS, keep skid-steer and specialty ice work on the right teams, capture cleared-lot photos, and collect card payments on the phone instead of running the shop from a group chat.
How does VortechPro handle storm-surge snow dispatch?
VortechPro uses Uber-style tiered routing. Platinum crews get a short exclusive window (about 30 seconds) to accept. If they pass, Gold then Silver get the job. Live GPS shows who is closest when overnight accumulation opens the board so plow and salt stops do not die in a WhatsApp thread.
Can you keep salting and skid-steer work off general plow trucks?
Yes. Use Platinum/Gold/Silver for plow volume. Flag salting/brine, skid-steer sidewalks, and specialty ice control as Specialist Only so only designated crews see them. VortechPro routes the job; your shop still owns equipment and contract SLAs.
Can snow crews get paid on site without a card terminal?
Yes. Crews charge customer cards in the VortechPro app via Stripe on their phone — no separate terminal required. Funds go to your own Stripe account. Pair payment with cleared-lot photos and an SMS receipt to close one-time and storm visits before leaving the property.
Does VortechPro replace seasonal contract management?
No. Seasonal contracts and trigger depths can stay in your account stack. VortechPro is the live board for storm-surge density, salt vs plow routing, and who can take the next HOA lot — so the office is not managing plows in a text thread.
How much does VortechPro cost for a snow removal company?
VortechPro is $99 per month and includes 5 technicians. Each additional tech is +$20 per month. All features are included — no feature add-ons. Start with a 30-day free trial; cancel anytime.
How fast can a snow removal shop go live?
Most shops can be live in minutes. We handle the software. Sign up, add crews, set Platinum/Gold/Silver tiers, and start dispatching — secured with AES-256 encryption. For response-time context, see our service call response times guide.
