Plant health care programs billed

Tree service billing software

Tree service billing software for arborists with programs that run all year. Spring and fall plant health care treatments invoice as each application is done, homeowners can pay for the whole program as a yearly plan, and HOAs and towns are billed on the terms in their contract.

Plant health care applications

A four-application plant health care program runs as a quarterly recurring job for each property. Auto-invoice bills every application when the arborist logs it complete, and a stored card pays overnight.

Recurring jobs

The whole program as one plan

Some homeowners prefer one yearly price. Offer the program as an annual plan they purchase online, and schedule the applications without invoices so the plan covers them.

Payments

HOA and town contracts

Common-area pruning for an association or street trees for a town are billed on net terms, and the property manager or public works clerk receives each invoice.

Client records

Storm work balances

After a storm, emergency removals pile up faster than people pay. Each invoice carries a due date, and unpaid ones are reminded automatically while you keep cutting.

Invoicing

Open balances by account

Aging totals separate current money from bills one or two months late, so a town that has not paid since spring is obvious.

Questions tree care companies ask about billing

Is there billing software for plant health care programs?

Yes. Each application can bill on completion, or the program can be sold as one yearly plan.

Can a homeowner pay for the whole program at once?

Yes. They buy the annual plan online, and the applications are scheduled without separate bills.

Can towns be billed on net terms?

Yes. Set the town's terms, and the public works contact receives each invoice.

Does it record treatments for state reports?

Product, rate and area are saved on each job, but Smarfle does not file state reports.

Can storm work invoices be followed up?

Yes. Unpaid invoices are reminded after their due date without anyone calling.

Can an HOA get one invoice per season?

Yes. Put the season's completed jobs on one invoice for the association.

What if a stored card is declined?

You hear the reason by email, and another charge is attempted a day later.

Can I add a PO number for a town?

Yes. Type it into the invoice notes so it prints on the PDF.
