COGS Bookkeeping works remotely with owner-operators and small trucking fleets across the country. But trucking isn’t the same everywhere. Fuel taxes, truck rules, tolls, weather closures and state taxes change from place to place, and each one changes your cost per mile.
These pages cover the local costs that matter in the areas our carriers run, and how to keep them in the right place in your books.
Cities
City pages cover the local reality of running freight in and out of a major trucking hub: city taxes, truck routes, tunnels, tolls and bottlenecks.
Chicago: city fuel taxes, the Lake Shore Drive truck ban, low viaducts, the No. 1 truck bottleneck in the country, and Illinois IFTA.
Seattle: mountain-pass chain rules, the SR 99 tunnel hazmat ban and axle tolls, ferry fares by length, and Washington’s public utility tax on in-state hauling.
States
State pages cover statewide rules: closures, mountain passes, open range and state taxes.
