About TruckCost Desk

Why it exists

Owner-operators think in revenue per mile, but the number that matters is cost per mile. This tool adds fuel, maintenance, insurance and payments to show the rate you need to charge to stay profitable.

TruckCost Desk is a free, independent web tool. Cost per mile and minimum rate for owner-operators.

We build small, fast tools that run entirely in your browser: no sign-up, no data uploads. The site is funded by advertising and an optional ad-free premium plan.

Accuracy

We work hard to keep formulas and reference data up to date, and every guide shows when it was last updated. Results are estimates; always double-check important decisions with a qualified professional.
