Almost every self-employed arborist complains about the paperwork associated with the job; quotes and invoices, job sheets, site risk assessments and tree health and hazard reports - unfortunately all this bureaucracy goes with the territory.
If you happen to have an iPhone or iPad your problems might just be solved - and its free. Download a copy of the Arborist App from the App Store and start making your life easier. Arborist App is optimized for the Australian market but it works fine for New Zealand.
Primarily designed to reduce the time taken to complete routine paperwork associated with tree work, Arborist App produces a fully customized PDF which can be sent directly to your customer while you are still onsite (how cool is that?).
In fact, all the time-consuming documents (and photographs) you are required to produce can now be created directly from your mobile device and sent directly to the customer, your crew or head office with the touch of a button.
Arborist App is currently free on the Apple App Store, but we don't imagine this situation will not last long once the app developers, Wilanjem Pty Ltd, build up a critical mass of users.
