See What Manual Mileage Tracking Is Actually Costing Your Business (Updated for 2026)
Manual mileage logs look simple, but they drag money out of your business in ways that are easy to miss. A few extra miles here and there, handwritten notes, missing trip details, they all turn into real dollars when you multiply them across a whole team and a full year.
Even the most honest teams struggle with accuracy.
People estimate miles, forget to write down stops, or try to recreate a day’s worth of driving from memory. Most companies see 15–25% extra mileage reported without even noticing it.
Automated tracking that pays for itself
Manual logs leave a lot of room for error. Timeero takes all of that off your plate by tracking every trip automatically, giving you reliable data you can actually use.
Accurate miles without the guesswork
Timeero logs the actual starting and ending points of every trip, so you’re no longer paying for estimates or rounded numbers. Employees don’t have to remember anything, and you get clean, consistent mileage every time.
Clear records that make payroll easier
Every trip record includes the date, locations, and purpose of travel already filled in. With no missing details or time-consuming back-and-forth, payroll and reimbursements are much easier to handle.
IRS-ready documentation
Timeero keeps the exact records the IRS looks for. If you ever need to show mileage records for proof during an audit, everything is organized and IRS-ready.
Less time spent fixing mistakes
Admins don’t have to chase down notes or sort through spreadsheets. Reports can be generated in seconds, and everyone stays on the same page.
Fair and transparent for your whole team
Your team gets credit for the miles they actually drive, and admins get clean, accurate data, taking the stress off both sides.
Savings that keep adding up
Once you remove the guesswork from mileage tracking, the difference shows up quickly. Most businesses see savings right away — and those savings continue month after month.
