How can I keep track of my mileage?


There are several tools available to help you track your mileage. Many drivers keep a physical log in a notebook, adding in starting odometer readings and ending odometer readings for each trip. Others are starting to incorporate spreadsheets to have a digital copy of their miles driven. For organizations trying to track the mileage of a fleet of vehicles, we recommend leveraging vehicle utilization reports in a fleet management app.

How do I create a mileage log?


To create a basic mileage log, you need to keep track of five key fields: the vehicle operator, date and time of the trip, purpose of the trip, starting odometer reading, and ending odometer reading. If you'd like your mileage log to provide further insights into your vehicle usage, we recommend creating a mileage log spreadsheet or leveraging an app that can quickly generate reports.
