Holiday light installation bookings without the November madness
A short season, a packed calendar, and routes that matter. Take installation bookings by zip code and cap each day at what your crews can hang.
Built around the workday
The friction that costs you bookings
These are the three problems every holiday lighting business tells us about.
Six weeks to earn the year
Every misrouted day in November is unrecoverable. Zip code days keep crews hanging lights, not driving between suburbs.
Overpromising the calendar
Hard daily caps per area mean you never book more installs than your ladders and crews can deliver.
Rebooking last year’s houses
Next season reminder emails go out in early fall, locking in returning customers before they shop around.
A booking flow with boundaries
Let customers book freely. Keep your operations in control.
ZipScheduler turns your local service rules into a clean, self serve experience. Every booking follows the areas, hours, and capacity you set.
Service areas stay protected
Only the zip codes you serve can move forward to a booking.
Availability stays honest
Working days, booking buffers, and capacity rules apply before a customer picks a slot.
Every job arrives prepared
Service details, customer notes, and contact information land in one place.

How ZipScheduler works for your holiday lighting business
Everything runs from one dashboard: your zip codes, your services, your team, and your customer emails.
Customers book by zip code
Your booking page asks for a zip code first. Customers only see days and times where your crews actually work, so you never get requests from areas you do not serve.
Different schedules for different areas
Run Mondays in one neighborhood and Thursdays in another. Each zip code gets its own working days, hours, slot length, and daily limits, which keeps your routes tight and your drive time low.
Dispatch your team in seconds
Assign installations to your crews from one dashboard. They get an email with the address, directions, and customer details, plus a live status they can update from their phone.
Reviews and repeat business on autopilot
After each job, ZipScheduler can send review requests, satisfaction checks, and rebooking offers automatically, so your holiday lighting business keeps growing without extra admin work.

Questions, answered
Frequently asked questions
How does online booking work for a holiday lighting business?
You add the zip codes you serve, set working days and time slots for each area, and share one booking link. Customers enter their zip code, pick a service and a time, and the installation request lands in your dashboard as pending until you confirm it.
Can I stop customers outside my service area from booking?
Yes. That is the core idea of ZipScheduler. If a zip code is not on your list, the customer sees a friendly message instead of a booking form, so you never waste time on installations you cannot reach.
How much does scheduling software for a holiday lighting business cost?
ZipScheduler has a free plan that includes online booking for up to 5 zip codes. The PRO plan costs 24 dollars per month, or 198 dollars per year, and includes 300 zip codes, 100 services, 20 team members, email marketing, and automated follow up emails. There are no per user fees and no contracts.
