TRANSPORTATION AND TRUCKING INDUSTRY QUESTIONS
FAQs
How does personal property tax impact trucking companies?
Trucking fleets are often overassessed for personal property tax on tractors, trailers, and cargo-handling equipment. We help ensure fair valuations and reduce tax burdens.
Can fleet owners appeal real estate property tax assessments on terminals and warehouses?
Yes. Logistics hubs, distribution centers, and trucking terminals are frequently overvalued, leading to inflated property tax bills. We handle appeals to secure fair assessments.
What are the tax compliance challenges for multi-state trucking operations?
Each state has different tax laws regarding property, sales, and fuel taxes. We develop customized compliance strategies to minimize risks and liabilities.
How can trucking companies reduce sales & use tax on vehicle maintenance and parts?
Many companies overpay sales tax on vehicle repairs, fuel purchases, and replacement parts. We conduct audits to identify overpayments and secure refunds.
Are there tax credits available for energy-efficient or alternative fuel vehicles?
Some states and federal programs offer tax incentives for fleets that adopt energy-efficient or alternative fuel vehicles. We help identify and apply for these tax credits.
Why should trucking and logistics businesses work with a tax consultant?
A tax consultant ensures accurate equipment valuations, minimizes tax exposure across multiple states, and helps businesses recover overpaid taxes, ultimately improving profitability.
