Moving company payroll is complicated — and time-consuming. Manually reconciling crew hours across multiple jobs, splitting tips, calculating overtime, and tracking commissions takes most moving company owners 4–6 hours every pay period. Most either pay someone to figure it out manually each week or use a generic payroll tool that has no concept of what a mover actually earns per job. Reelow CRM tracks crew time at the job level and turns it into payroll automatically.
Payroll built from real job time, not estimates
- Crews clock in and out of jobs with pause/resume time tracking from their phone
- Total time, break time, and billable time are recorded separately per job
- Regular and overtime hours are calculated automatically based on your configured thresholds
- Tips collected on jobs are logged and included in crew pay calculations
- Sales commissions are tracked by rep and applied at configurable rates
Pay periods, approvals, and exports
- Weekly pay periods with crew earnings summaries
- Manager review and approval before any payroll is finalized
- Exportable pay period reports for your payroll processor or accountant
- Crew earnings broken down by job, hours, tips, commissions, and adjustments
- Historical payroll records stored in the CRM for reference and disputes
Handles the complexity of moving crew compensation
Moving crews are not salaried employees working 9-to-5. Reelow's payroll module handles the realities of the job: split shifts across multi-day moves, overtime that spans multiple jobs in a week, crew leaders who earn a higher base than movers, and tips that need to be divided across the crew. All of this is configured once and calculated automatically every pay period.
Integrated with job scheduling and dispatch
Because payroll lives inside Reelow CRM, it is connected to every job. When you approve a final bill, the crew's hours and earnings are already attached to the job record. There is no re-entering hours from a separate time-tracking app or reconciling who worked which job. The system knows because dispatch assigned the crew and the crew clocked the job.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does moving company payroll work in Reelow?
Crews clock in and out of jobs using Reelow's time tracking. At the end of each pay period, the system calculates regular hours, overtime, tips, and commissions for every crew member. A manager reviews and approves the period, then exports the report for processing.
Does it handle overtime for movers?
Yes. Reelow calculates overtime automatically based on your configured thresholds — daily, weekly, or both. Overtime is flagged and separated from regular hours in every payroll report.
Can I track tips and commissions in the same system?
Yes. Tips collected on jobs and sales commissions are both tracked inside Reelow CRM and included in crew pay calculations. You configure the commission rates and tip-split rules once, and the system applies them automatically.
Does Reelow replace my payroll processor?
No — Reelow calculates what each person earned and exports the data. You still run payroll through your existing processor (ADP, Gusto, QuickBooks Payroll, etc.) using the export. Reelow handles the hard part: tracking hours, calculating earnings, and producing the numbers.
Is payroll included or an add-on?
Payroll and commission tracking are included in the Reelow Professional plan at $199.99/month with all users included and a 30-day free trial.
Can crew members see their own pay?
Crew members can see their job time records. Pay period summaries are visible to managers and owners. Access is role-based so crew see their own hours but not company-wide payroll data.
