PDP For Fleets - 3 Months Free

Save $3,000 Per Driver With Better Per Diem Management

The freight market has experienced steady softening over the past year while diesel prices have gained more than 40 cents from a month ago. So how can fleets mitigate softening freight rates and the exploding cost of fuel? Most fleets aren’t maximizing the tax deductible benefits of per diem, leaving thousands of dollars per driver on the table every year. Below is a guide on how best to manage this within your carrier operation, and unlock significant fleet savings while boosting driver pay amid economic uncertainty and record inflation.

Unlock Fleet Tax Savings Using Per Diem

Although Congress temporarily increased the trucker per diem deduction to 100% for 2021 and 2022, there is a common misconception in the industry that at 80% deductibility, per diem will not save a motor carrier money. The below tables prove otherwise.

Assumptions

The following analysis assumes:

  • 2,500 average weekly miles / driver
  • $69 per diem
  • $65,000 annual driver wages
  • 255 nights away from home
  • 12% effective federal income tax rate
  • and $10/$100 workers' comp rate
Use per diem compliance tech to unlock fleet savings amid economic uncertainty.

Workers Compensation Savings From Using Per Diem Plus

Twenty-three states are members of the National Council on Compensation Insurance (NCCI), and 39 rely on NCCI regulations. Under NCCI rules, a motor carrier paying substantiated per diem under an IRS-accountable plan can exclude up to $69/day of per diem from taxable wages, which provides a significant per driver annual savings to a fleet. (IRS Publishes 2024 Trucker Per Diem Rates)

Even with growing economic uncertainty and recessionary clouds on the horizon, Congress elected not to extend the 100% deduction for per diem. However, a motor carrier that implements an automated per diem solution will be in a stronger position to weather the economic storm.

Case Study: Driver Tax Savings for a 25 Truck Fleet

As of January 1, 2018, employee drivers can no longer claim per diem as an itemized deduction on their federal income tax return. However, motor carriers can offer per diem to employee drivers to recapture the lost tax savings. The average Married over-the-road driver earning $65,000 annually will save approximately $3,457 in federal income taxes equivalent to $0.03 cents per mile.

The average Single over-the-road driver earning $65,000 annually will save approximately $4,485 in federal income taxes equivalent to $0.04 cents per mile.

In short, you are virtually always better off leveraging a fixed $69/day (as of this writing) to maximize your per diem tax offset from wages.

About:

Mido Selimovic came to the US in 1999 as an 18-year-old refugee from Vlasenica, Bosnia-Herzegovina where his family struggled to stay alive in a country destroyed by the Bosnian War.  At age 25 Mido entered the transportation industry by purchasing his first truck.  In 2008,  he opened Mido's Trucking with his sole purpose being to provide a workplace for fellow war refugees who were looking for a reliable carrier they could work for and call their home. Since starting Mido’s 15 years ago the company has grown to 100 trucks serving 48 states  with the help of his wife Azra, a fellow refugee who fled Kozarska-Dubic at the outset of the war when she was 12.

As with many small businesses in America, Mido’s is a family affair with many relatives working for the company as drivers, dispatchers and mechanics. Mido’s mission as refugee haven remains unchanged to this day; they employ drivers from Africa, Asia, Bulgaria, Eastern Europe and Thailand looking for an opportunity to make a fresh start in the USA.
