Tree Care Software

A wind event drops limbs on three streets before breakfast. VortechPro puts climb crews and ground teams on one live board — Platinum first refusal, closest GPS to the hazard, Specialist flags for aerial and crane work, and Stripe with site photos before the chipper leaves.

01 · Storm & Hazard Dispatch

Closest crew to the limb. Fastest accept after the wind.

When a storm opens the phone, VortechPro pings your Platinum crews first with a short exclusive window — about 30 seconds — then falls back to Gold and Silver so hazard calls do not rot in a group chat. Live GPS keeps the nearest available team in view while homeowners send the same photo to three numbers.

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

A downed limb is not
a group-chat problem.

Storm photos flood three threads. Climb crews and chipper operators argue who is closer. The homeowner’s driveway stays blocked while the office scrolls for an address that already moved twice.

Storm photos bury the board

Every homeowner texts the same limb. Someone is already on a prune across town. The hazard that blocks a street waits while three leads debate who still has fuel in the chipper.

Ground crew gets the climb

An aerial takedown hits a cleanup-only team. A crane job hits someone without the operator. Without Specialist flags, every storm ping looks like another brush pile.

Chipper and crane staging guesswork

You hope the right trailer is near the job. Staging notes live in someone’s head until the crew arrives without rigging or a dump path.

Proof and payment after demob

Owners want before/afters of the hazard. Cash removals leave money on the stump. Charge on site, attach photos, send an SMS receipt — close it before the chipper rolls.

02 · Climb vs Ground Split

Aerial work and cleanup volume on one board — not one ping.

Run same-day storm cleanup alongside scheduled pruning and complex removals from the same platform. Dispatch now or schedule any day and time. Job-tied chat carries staging notes — who has the chipper, who has climb gear, who can run a crane window — so the office is not reconstructing the fleet from memory.

  • Immediate hazard dispatch + scheduled prune / removal days
  • Tiered routing on every outbound lead
  • Office-to-crew chat tied to the property
  • Notes for chipper, climb gear, and crane staging

Storm surge and climb days
without a PM-portal hero.

Large removal estimates can live in a quoting tool. Same-day hazard trees and wind events need Platinum first refusal, closest-crew GPS, Specialist aerial routing, and site photos tied to the job — not another spreadsheet of “who’s free.”

03 · Site Photos & Field Pay

Hazard proof before the chipper leaves the curb.

Tree care disputes often start with “you left half the pile.” Attach before/after and hazard photos to the job before demob. Charge the card in the VortechPro app via Stripe on the phone the crew already carries. Funds land in your own Stripe account. SMS receipt closes the loop while the stump still shows.

  • Site and hazard photo documentation on every call
  • Field notes visible to office and crew
  • In-field Stripe charge — money to your account
  • SMS receipt so cash removals do not chase the office

Getting paid while the chipper is still warm is the point. Soft trial CTAs if you want to see the flow — no hard sell. Your shop still owns training, insurance, and OSHA compliance on every aerial job.

Tree care software
questions.

Straight answers for owners evaluating dispatch software for tree care — storms, climb crews, and hazard callbacks.

What is tree care software?
Tree care software helps arborist and tree companies dispatch storm takedowns, hazard callbacks, and scheduled pruning — route the closest available crew with live GPS, keep climb and crane work on the right teams, capture site photos, and collect card payments on the phone instead of running the shop from a group chat.
How does VortechPro handle storm and hazard tree 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 after a wind event so downed limbs and hazard callbacks do not die in a WhatsApp thread.
Can you keep climb crews and ground-only crews off the wrong jobs?
Yes. Use Platinum/Gold/Silver for storm and cleanup volume. Flag aerial climb, crane removals, and complex takedowns as Specialist Only so only designated crews see them. VortechPro routes the job; your shop still owns training, insurance, and OSHA compliance.
Can tree 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 site photos and an SMS receipt to close storm and removal jobs before demob.
Does VortechPro replace estimating software for large removals?
No. Big removal quotes and proposal tools can stay in your estimating stack. VortechPro is the live board for storm surge, hazard callbacks, and scheduled climb days — so the office is not managing who has the chipper in a text thread.
How much does VortechPro cost for a tree care 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 tree care 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 injury and liability context on field crews, see our what happens if a tech gets hurt on the job guide.
