Arbor Dash compliance dashboard with chemical application records and certification tracking

Stay Compliant Without the Filing Cabinets

Regulatory compliance is a critical responsibility for every tree care company that performs plant health care treatments, pesticide applications, or any work involving restricted-use chemicals. Federal EPA regulations, state department of agriculture requirements, and local ordinances all mandate that you maintain detailed records of what chemicals were applied, where, when, by whom, in what quantities, and under what conditions. Failing to maintain these records can result in fines, license revocations, and legal liability. Yet many tree care companies still track compliance on paper forms that get lost, damaged, or filed in boxes that no one can find during an audit. Arbor Dash arborist compliance software replaces this chaos with a digital system that makes compliance record-keeping effortless and audit-ready at all times.

Every chemical application performed by your crews is recorded in Arbor Dash with all the detail that regulators require: product name, EPA registration number, active ingredients, application rate, total quantity used, target pest or condition, weather conditions at time of application, property address, and the certified applicator who performed the treatment. Crews can log this information from the field on their phone or tablet immediately after completing an application, while the details are still fresh. The system validates that the applicator assigned to the job holds the required pesticide applicator license for the type of treatment being performed, preventing compliance violations before they happen.

Beyond chemical tracking, Arbor Dash manages your team's professional certifications and licenses in a centralized database. ISA Certified Arborist credentials, state pesticide applicator licenses, CDL endorsements, OSHA training records, and any other certifications your company tracks are stored with expiration dates and automatic renewal reminders. When a certification is approaching expiration, the system alerts both the employee and management so renewals are handled proactively rather than discovered during a random audit. All compliance records are exportable to CSV and PDF formats, so when an inspector or auditor requests documentation, you can generate a complete, organized report in seconds instead of hours. Arbor Dash tree care chemical tracking turns compliance from a dreaded administrative burden into a routine part of your daily workflow.

  • Chemical application record keeping with full regulatory detail
  • EPA registration number and active ingredient tracking
  • ISA certification tracking with renewal reminders
  • Pesticide applicator license and credential management
  • Exportable compliance records for audits (CSV and PDF)

How It Works

  1. Set up your products — Add the chemicals and treatments your company uses with EPA registration numbers, active ingredients, and default application rates. This saves time on every future entry.
  2. Log applications in the field — After performing a treatment, crews record the application details from their device: product, quantity, target pest, weather conditions, and applicator. The system validates the applicator's license status automatically.
  3. Track certifications centrally — Upload ISA certifications, applicator licenses, and other credentials for every team member. Arbor Dash sends alerts before expiration dates so renewals are never missed.
  4. Export for audits — When an inspector or regulatory body requests records, generate a complete compliance report filtered by date range, applicator, product, or property in seconds.

Be Audit-Ready. Every Day. Without the Paperwork.

Compliance FAQ

What chemical application details does Arbor Dash track?
Arbor Dash records all the detail that federal and state regulators typically require: product name, EPA registration number, active ingredients, application rate, total quantity applied, target pest or condition, weather conditions at time of application (temperature, wind, humidity), property address, date and time, and the certified applicator who performed the treatment. You can also add custom fields for any additional data your state requires.
Does the system prevent unqualified applicators from being assigned?
Yes. When a plant health care job or chemical application is assigned to a crew member, Arbor Dash checks that the individual holds an active, non-expired pesticide applicator license for the relevant category. If their license is expired or missing, you receive a warning before the assignment is confirmed. This prevents compliance violations before they happen.
Can I export compliance records for an audit?
Absolutely. Arbor Dash lets you generate compliance reports filtered by date range, applicator, chemical product, or property address. Reports can be exported as CSV files for spreadsheet analysis or as formatted PDF documents suitable for submitting to regulatory agencies. You can produce a complete audit-ready report in seconds, not hours.
