Is this route actually profitable?
Fuel is only one part of the cost. Add maintenance, insurance, miles, and time to see what the route really pays.
How the math works
Use the number after every cost
This calculator shows the amount left after the costs that are easy to forget. Change the assumptions to match your marketplace, product, vehicle, or region instead of relying on a generic rule of thumb.
Net hourly = (revenue − fuel − maintenance − insurance − tax reserve) ÷ hours
Questions sellers ask
How much does gas cost per mile?
Fuel cost per mile is gas price divided by vehicle MPG. Maintenance and depreciation are separate costs and should also be included.
What is a good delivery cost per mile?
There is no universal number, but comparing your all-in cost per mile with your payout per mile reveals whether a route has enough margin.
Should I include insurance in route profit?
Yes. Allocate a weekly or monthly share of insurance if the vehicle is used to generate income.
Fee assumptions and related tools
Rates change by country, category, seller status, and platform policy. Review the IRS standard mileage rates before publishing prices.
