Automated Restoration Equipment Pickup Scheduling

Every morning, WebRun opens Encircle, checks moisture readings and equipment logs for every active drying job, identifies equipment that has met target dryness or is past its scheduled pickup date, drafts a pickup coordination email for the homeowner, and alerts your crew coordinator in Slack.

In short

How do I automatically schedule drying equipment pickups in a restoration company?

WebRun checks Encircle every morning for drying jobs where moisture readings have hit the dry standard or equipment is overdue for pickup. It drafts a pickup coordination email to the homeowner for each job and posts your crew coordinator a Slack list sorted by equipment age, so rentals come back on time and never rack up avoidable charges.

  • Equipment ready for pickup is identified every morning before coordinators start their day
  • Rental overcharges are avoided by catching equipment that has passed its expected duration
  • Homeowners receive a professional pickup request rather than an ad-hoc phone call

Questions, answered

Will it email homeowners to schedule pickups without approval?

No. Every pickup email is saved as a Gmail draft for your crew coordinator to review before it is sent to the homeowner.

How does it determine when equipment is ready for pickup?

It reads moisture readings and equipment logs in Encircle. A job is flagged when readings reach the target dry standard you set in Encircle, or when the placement exceeds the expected duration.

What about jobs where the homeowner is not available for access?

The draft email includes a scheduling window and a contact number. Your coordinator can adjust the draft before sending to accommodate access constraints.
