Mileage Tracking Tips
1. Track All Business Miles
Include miles driven to pick up passengers/orders, driving between gigs, trips to the gas station, car wash, and any other business-related travel.
2. Use an Automatic Tracker
Manual tracking often misses 30-40% of miles. Use an automatic mileage tracking app to capture every business mile without effort.
3. Keep a Mileage Log
The IRS requires documentation. Keep records showing the date, destination, business purpose, and miles driven for each trip.
4. Choose the Right Method
You can use either the standard mileage rate or actual expenses method. The standard rate is simpler, but actual expenses may save more if you have high vehicle costs.
