Bookkeeping for Trucking & Logistics

Cost per mile is the only number that matters, and most books cannot produce it.

Remote bookkeeping — monthly close, cleanup, and books ready for your CPA.

Trucking books that cannot produce cost per mile cannot tell you whether a lane is worth running. Fuel, maintenance, settlements, and per diem land in general accounts, and IFTA reporting depends on mileage records nobody reconciled to the books.

Cost per mile

By truck and by lane — the number that decides whether a run was worth it.

Settlements clean

Driver and owner-operator pay recorded with 1099 reporting intact.

Factoring not double-counted

Factored invoices recorded once, so revenue is not inflated.

Fuel records reconciled

Mileage and fuel tied to the books, which is what IFTA depends on.

What we handle

  • Cost-per-mile tracking by truck and by lane
  • Fuel, maintenance, insurance, and permit expense tracking
  • Driver settlements and owner-operator 1099 reporting
  • Records supporting IFTA and IRP filings, reconciled to the books
  • Factoring and advance tracking so receivables are not double-counted

Common problems we fix

  • No cost-per-mile visibility, so lane decisions are guesses
  • Factored invoices recorded twice, inflating both revenue and receivables
  • Fuel records that do not reconcile to mileage reporting

Why your state matters here

Bookkeeping for trucking & logistics is not the same in every state. Sales tax rates and what is taxable, registration and licensing, payroll rules, and filing cadence all vary — and for this industry those differences change real work, not just a number on a form. Pick your state below for specifics.

We keep the books. You run the business.

Categorization, reconciliation, month-end close, and clean financial statements — with nothing left for you to chase.

Trucking & Logistics — Frequently Asked Questions

Do you understand trucking & logistics specifically?

+
Yes — that is the point of setting the books up by industry. Trucking books that cannot produce cost per mile cannot tell you whether a lane is worth running. Fuel, maintenance, settlements, and per diem land in general accounts, and IFTA reporting depends on mileage records nobody reconciled to the books.

Do you work in my existing accounting file?

+
Yes. We work inside your file so you keep ownership and full visibility. If you do not have one set up yet, we build it around your industry from the start.

Can you help if I am months behind?

+
That is our specialty. Cleanup is quoted at a fixed price after a short no-obligation review, so you know the cost before any work begins.
