Grain Trucking Profitability Calculator

Know your cost per mile and loaded-mile breakeven before you quote a rate.
Cost Per Mile
Fixed and variable cost breakdown — payments, insurance, fuel, tires, maintenance, permits and owner's labor. Calculates breakeven cost per mile, breakeven rate per loaded mile, and cost per bushel and per ton from 25 to 300 miles. Rate, diesel price and annual miles sensitivity tables.
Load Tracker
Log each load — date, origin, destination, commodity, bushels, miles, rate and rate type (per loaded mile, per bushel or flat rate). Revenue, estimated cost and profit calculate per load; profit shows green or red. 600 rows.
Season Summary
Season totals for loads, bushels, miles, revenue, cost and profit, with averages per load, per mile and per bushel. Profit by destination and by month. A fixed-cost check shows profit after all annual fixed costs.
Truck Comparison
Current vs. replacement truck side by side — annual cost, cost per mile, operating savings, and payback: net purchase cost (price minus trade-in equity) ÷ annual operating savings.
