Per-mile costing, IFTA compliance, driver settlement calculations, and equipment depreciation — handled by people who understand this industry's financial layer.
Talk to Our TeamWhat We Deliver
Accounting Built Around Transportation
Most accounting practices apply the same template to every client. Transportation companies end up with reports that don't capture what actually drives profitability in logistics — cost per load, per-mile efficiency, multi-state fuel tax obligations. Lithvane organizes financial records around how this industry works, not how generic software categorizes expenses.
Industry-Native Reporting
Monthly reports built around fleet profitability, cost-per-load, and driver settlement summaries — not generic P&L formats.
On-Time Compliance
IFTA quarterly filings handled systematically across all relevant jurisdictions — no scramble before deadlines.
Fleet Cost Visibility
Depreciation schedules, maintenance cost history, and lifecycle comparisons that inform vehicle replacement decisions.
Core Advantages
What This Looks Like Day-to-Day
No explaining the industry to your accountant
You won't spend time clarifying what per-diem driver settlements are, how fuel surcharges affect margin, or why cost-per-load matters more than monthly totals. We already work in this context.
Reports organized around what operators track
Monthly summaries are built around fleet profitability by vehicle or route, load-level cost breakdowns, and fuel cost as a percentage of revenue — not adapted from generic templates.
Multi-state compliance handled throughout the quarter
Interstate carriers deal with overlapping jurisdictions and mileage tracking obligations. We manage those details on an ongoing basis so filing is orderly rather than a last-minute reconstruction.
Cost data for equipment decisions
Fleet depreciation schedules and maintenance cost tracking give operators the historical data to decide when a vehicle is costing more than it's worth to keep running.
The Process
How We Work Together
Initial Review
We start by looking at your current records, filing history, and how your operation is structured — to understand what's in place before setting up anything new.
Data Setup
We connect with your dispatch records, fuel card data, and expense documentation through shared access — minimal manual transfers on your end.
Ongoing Reporting
Monthly reports arrive on a consistent schedule. Quarterly IFTA filings are prepared with time to review before submission. Records stay organized throughout the year.
Periodic Check-Ins
Regular calls walk through the numbers, surface anything worth flagging, and adjust scope as your fleet or operations change over time.

Specialized service tiers available
Transportation businesses often find that financial record-keeping falls behind during busy freight cycles. Lithvane handles that layer consistently so operators can concentrate on their fleet — without the quarterly scramble before IFTA filings are due or the end-of-year reconstruction of records.
