Logistics Accounting for Trucking Companies and Transportation Services

Driver turnover, increased regulation, insurance and safety issues, changes in fuel prices, purchase and utilization of equipment, increased cost of operation, and state and local tax compliance are just a few of the ever-evolving challenges trucking companies face. Accounting services for logistics and transportation understand that while details matter in every company, this is particularly true in logistics, where ½ cent per mile can make a tremendous difference over the course of a year. We work to move your transportation company forward, offering accounting professionals experienced in providing tax, logistics, and consulting services.

• Lane analysis – Pricing & logistics analysis, including per-mile costing and loaded and empty miles analysis, can provide insight and opportunity for improved efficiency and profitability.
• Owner-operated arrangements – properly structuring and managing relationships with owner-operators will keep your fleet operating at high capacity.
