What is in the download

Who it is for

  • Small fleet owners and owner-operators who pay drivers by the mile or by a percentage of the load.
  • Dispatchers or office staff who prepare weekly driver settlements in a spreadsheet and want the math done for them.
  • Anyone who wants a simple, printable one-page statement, ready to sign, showing what was paid and why.

Who it is not for

  • Not tax, legal or financial advice, and not accounting or payroll software. It is a template you fill in.
  • Not a source of market rates. Every number in the example is a placeholder, not a market rate, tax rate or legal requirement.
  • Not one-size-fits-all. The Loads tab holds 40 loads, and you must check your driver agreement and your state's rules on allowed deductions yourself.
