Frequently Asked Questions
What are the latest tax deductions for truck drivers? How do I stay up-to-date with the latest?
There is a lot of helpful information online for truckers and their businesses (check our Resources page), especially in relation to tax deductions. Our certified tax experts, industry-focused, not only guide you through but also shield you from potential costly missteps on the latest tax changes impacting your business. Need more specifics? Reach out!
I'm new. How and where do I get started in trucking?
Start with the basics / technical requirements. At the same time, continue to educate yourself about the trucking business and industry, fine-tuning your goals and finding your fit. Once you’re on the road and start to grow, you’ll need to implement systems to keep going. Accounting best practices and systems will be an important stop on that journey and we’d be happy to help anytime.
What tools work best for truckers to keep me organized while on the road? Tools for trucking companies?
Life on the road is tough enough. Flexibility is key to keep things organized in relation to your business. On the one hand, there is software that can do it all but with a steep learning curve and its own cost. On the other, paper copies of receipts stashed all around the cab is not great either. We help find a balance, providing new online tools for our clients to upload documents, make payments, and submit expense forms, but also continue to offer monthly envelopes for receipts.
How can I make my trucking business more efficient?
Formalize processes and build systems that free your time to focus on growing the business. Easiest place to start is with your accounting systems. For example, implementing processes that work better for you on the road, or introducing software solutions like Quickbooks for expense and receipt tracking, bookkeeping and payroll. As you consider options, our team can guide your next best step. Get in touch!
What other resources are there for me to learn more and connect with others in the industry?
Resources for truckers are abundant, depending on what you need. There is a lot of information available online, but to get started, CDL Life would be one to check out. Built for truckers to provide the latest news, entertainment, as well as a place to find community. They are building tools to make life on the road easier as well and their site is easy to use.
