This text is created for people connected with trucking companies and interested in topics connected with transportation firms. I want to write some information about finances of transportation firms. As you know there are not only incomes in trucking business (and other kinds of businesses too). The most important expense are taxes, especially these connected with IFTA and
irs 2290. The first kind of taxes was described in my previous texts very careful, so in this one I will focus on the second one.
This tax is important not for all trucking companies, but only for these with heavy trucks (over 55000 lbs weight). You have to pay $550 for every such truck each year. What is more, you need to pay for every new heavy truck in your company. You have to do it, because without paying this tax you will not be able to register your heavy vehicle.
As you can see it's a very important tax. I suggest you to remember about it or write somewhere an information about your next payment connected with this tax. It's really important for your company.
