Tree Services quoting

Tree Services quoting software
— quote jobs in under two minutes.

Tree work is priced almost entirely on access and risk — the same-sized tree costs wildly different amounts depending on whether it's an open drop, a climb, or a crane job next to a house. Tradewin prices each job against your real crew time, equipment and tip costs, from a hedge trim to a large removal, and sends the quote from site. Save your standard jobs — stump grinds, pruning, small removals — as TradeWin Recipes™ so quoting the next one takes a couple of taps.

What drives the price of tree services work

The same job can vary widely. Tradewin prices against your real costs, so these factors are built in — not guessed.

Access & method

Whether a tree comes down as an open drop, a climb-and-lower, or a crane pick is the single biggest price driver — the size of the tree matters far less than how you reach it.

Species & size

Hardwood and softwood cut and load differently, and removal job types are banded by height, so species and size together set the crew time and disposal volume.

Emergency & after-hours

Storm and emergency work carries after-hours rates and often crane hire or council permits, which drive major variation over a booked-in daytime job.

Green waste & stump

Mulching, tip runs and stump grinding are separate costs from the felling — volume of material and stump diameter should be priced in, not thrown in.

Common tree services jobs and what moves the price

  • Arborist Report

    Number of trees, DA/council requirements, and report complexity affect pricing.

  • Emergency Tree Work

    After-hours rates, crane hire, and council permit requirements drive major variation.

  • Green Waste Mulching & Removal

    Volume of material and travel to tip affect pricing.

  • Hedge Trimming

    Hedge height, density, and access equipment requirements vary per-metre cost.

  • Palm Tree Cleaning

    Height and frond weight drive variation — dead heads are heavier and slower to remove.

  • Stump Grinding

    Stump diameter, root system extent, and access affect pricing.

Frequently asked questions

Is Tradewin built for arborists?+

Yes. Tradewin supports 13+ tree services job types including Arborist Report, Emergency Tree Work, Green Waste Mulching & Removal. You can also add custom job types for work that isn't in the list.

How fast can I quote a tree services job?+

Most tradies price and send a quote in under two minutes once costs are saved. Repeat jobs are faster — apply a Recipe and the costs scale to the new job size automatically.

Can customers request quotes via SMS or my website?+

The instant-quote form for your website works on your free trial and every paid plan. SMS text-in — where customers text your Tradewin number — is available from Starter and up. Either way, Tradewin builds the quote from your saved rates, and you review and send, or auto-send for jobs you know cold.

Does Tradewin connect to Xero or ServiceM8?+

Yes. Accepted quotes can push straight to Xero as a draft invoice or to ServiceM8 as a job card — no double data entry.

Can Tradewin price tree removals by size and access?+

Yes. Removals are pre-loaded in small, medium and large bands, and you can load the difference between an open drop, a climb and a crane job so the quote reflects the real access and method, not just the tree's height.

Does it handle stump grinding and green-waste removal?+

Yes — stump grinding, full stump excavation and green-waste mulching are separate job types, so you can price the removal, the stump and the tip run cleanly rather than bundling them into a rough figure.
