For tree services
Tree service software that prices the job the way you do
Northfork Trades was built with a working tree service in the Colorado mountains. It prices removals from your own rates, adds the climber, the hill and the haul to the dump, and sends the customer an estimate they can sign on their phone.
Ryan, founder. Marine veteran, lives in the Colorado mountains. No contract, from $49 a month.
What it does
Built around how you price the work
- Estimates that know a hill from a flat yard
- Set terrain, which way the logs come out, and whether slash is chipped, left or hauled. Each choice moves the price and the labor by the amounts you set in your catalog.
- Climber fee added for you
- Tick Requires climber and your climbing fee goes on the estimate. Mark who on your crew is a certified climber, and they show a Climber tag when you assign the job.
- Dump fees on the quote, not out of your pocket
- Save your dump and transfer sites with their fee per load. Pick the site and the number of loads, and the estimate carries the real cost of hauling away.
- Give the customer options
- Send fell-and-leave, fell-and-process and full removal as options on one estimate. The customer picks one when they sign online, typed name and a tick box, no app.
- Deposits, then the final invoice
- Ask for a deposit on signing and send the final invoice when the work is done. Online card and bank payments go to your own Stripe account and are being switched on company by company.
- Crew, equipment and the schedule
- Put the job on the calendar, assign the crew and the equipment, and see what is booked, scheduled and waiting on you in one Action Queue.
How a job runs
From the request to the invoice

A request comes in from your website form or a phone call and lands in your pipeline.
- 02
You walk the job, build the estimate from your catalog and send it before you leave the driveway.
- 03
The customer signs online and pays the deposit. The job moves to booking on its own.
- 04
You schedule it, assign the crew and the equipment, and do the work.
- 05
You send the final invoice. The deposit is already taken off.

Questions
Questions people ask
- Does it come with tree service prices?
- It comes with a tree care catalog to start from, and every price in it is yours to change. Site conditions, the climber fee, dump fees and your minimum charge are all set by you.
- Can my customers pay online?
- Yes, by card or bank transfer, into your own Stripe account. Online payments are being turned on company by company; until they are on for you, record deposits and payments on the job.
- Can it text my customers when the crew is on the way?
- Yes, for customers who agreed to texts: booked, the reminder the day before, and on the way with your crew member's name and arrival time. Everyone also gets the email.
- We also plow snow or fix small engines. Does that fit?
- Yes. Snow removal and small-engine repair each have their own screens and price list, and one account can run all of them.
