Sendatradie

Sendatradie is a field-service platform for Australian trade and service companies that need scheduling, job execution, billing and customer contact in one place. It suits growing crews that want mobile payments and Xero or MYOB synchronization; the right tier depends mainly on monthly job volume.

Overview

Scheduling, dispatch, quoting, invoicing, payments and customer communication follow one workflow. Online booking, route planning and crew scheduling support day-to-day operations, while disposal records make it relevant to junk-removal businesses as well as plumbers, electricians, locksmiths, HVAC technicians, appliance repairers and garage-door specialists.

The central trade-off is capacity. Every tier has a monthly job ceiling, so a busy company can outgrow an otherwise suitable plan even when staffing and client needs remain manageable.

Key features

The iOS and Android apps give field workers access to job and customer history, job updates, photos, quotes and invoices. They can also take payment on site. Tap to Pay, payment links and same-day field payments shorten the gap between completing work and collecting money.

Two-way synchronization with Xero and MYOB covers invoices, payments and customers, keeping accounting records aligned with operational activity. Instagram, Stripe, Google Calendar and Facebook are also listed as integrations. An AI assistant can answer calls, book jobs and follow up clients automatically, useful for businesses that cannot staff every incoming enquiry.

Paid plans include free migration of jobs, customers and quotes from ServiceM8, Tradify, AroFlo or Excel. Sendatradie advertises 24/7 email, chat and phone support, with email replies targeted within four business hours. Its servers use SSL certificates, and transferred data is encrypted where required by law.

Pricing

Sendatradie has a free tier, paid plans from $89 a month, and a 14-day trial. The published annual-billing equivalents are lower than the month-to-month figures shown.

Lite is workable for a small operator handling no more than 30 jobs monthly, but it omits the accounting integration and reporting included in Starter. Starter is the practical step for teams needing unlimited staff and clients, provided 150 jobs is enough. Standard is aimed at higher-volume operations that will use automation, reminders and custom reporting. Ultimate is for businesses approaching 1,500 jobs or needing inventory, franchise controls, service plans and staff location/status features. A company exceeding a cap will need a more expensive tier rather than simply adding seats.

Platforms

Sendatradie runs on the web and has apps for Android and iOS, giving office personnel browser access while field staff work from phones.

Who it's for

Choose it if you run an Australian trade or service business and want one system from booking through payment, especially when Xero or MYOB is part of the accounting workflow. Junk-removal crews also benefit from disposal records. It is less suitable when your workload regularly exceeds 1,500 jobs per month or when you need a plan without a job quota.

Pros and cons

• Pro: Job, quote, invoice and payment actions are connected, reducing handoffs between office and field work.
• Pro: Mobile staff can collect payments, attach photos and issue documents while still on site.
• Pro: Xero and MYOB sync invoices, payments and customers in both directions.
• Pro: Free migration from four named systems or Excel lowers the cost of switching on paid plans.
• Con: Monthly job caps range from 30 to 1,500, making volume the decisive pricing constraint.
• Con: The free Lite tier lacks the accounting integration and reports that appear on Starter.

Alternatives

For a broader shortlist, see Junk Removal Software.

BrainO is worth considering if three active projects and two team members fit a smaller operation, with a 149.00 USD monthly Starter plan beyond that.

Dumpster Controls suits users who want unlimited orders, trucks, drivers and customers on its free plan and do not need a free trial.

FieldVibe is a lower-cost choice for a solo user: its free Solo plan allows unlimited jobs and clients, but only one user and one device.

HaulHQ may fit businesses preferring usage-based charges, with a free base, per-job and card-processing fees.

JunkIt is an option for very small teams whose free plan's one seat and five estimates and jobs per month are sufficient.

1minutebooking is a focused web booking alternative rather than a full field-service suite.

Cartoply is a web/API scheduling option with a free personal scheduling page and calendar synchronization.

Junk Removal OS is a web-based alternative for operators whose needs fit its free tier of up to 15 active jobs and 50 clients.

Verdict

Sendatradie is a strong fit for Australian trade and service teams that want mobile job administration, on-site collection and synchronized accounting in one platform. Choose it when its job cap matches your monthly workload; look elsewhere if your volume is higher or you prefer pricing that is not tied so directly to completed jobs.
