Trip Cost Calculator
Enter fuel, tolls, daily expenses and your margin; see the cost of the trip and the amount per kilometre.
Cost of the Trip
The result changes as you fill in the boxes. An item left empty counts as zero.
Enter the loaded distance and at least one expense; the cost appears here.
This is a rough estimate. Remember to divide monthly costs such as depreciation, loan instalments, driver wages and taxes per trip and add them to “other expenses”. SeyirGo does not set prices.
Which Items Count
A forgotten item comes out of your profit.
Fuel
Loaded plus empty kilometres × consumption. An empty return burns fuel too; entering only the loaded distance understates the cost.
Tolls and crossings
Motorways, bridges, tunnels and ferries; on international trips also transit permits, visas and border costs.
Daily expenses
Allowance, meals, parking and accommodation. Days spent waiting at loading or at the border count too.
Other expenses
Tyre and maintenance share, insurance, commission; the per-trip share of fixed monthly costs.
Three Things That Change the Result
The same rate can be a profit or a loss depending on these.
Empty kilometres
Without a return load, the outbound rate pays for fuel in both directions. Finding a return load is the step that cuts cost the most.
Waiting
Every day spent at loading, unloading or the border raises daily expenses; on lanes where waiting is likely, set the number of days accordingly.
Per kilometre
The easiest way to compare lanes is the amount per kilometre: a trip with a bigger total rate can earn less per kilometre.
