QuickBooks Payroll is everywhere — it’s simple, it’s affordable, and for a lot of small business owners, it feels like the safe choice. And honestly? For many industries, it is. But trucking is a whole different world.

In this episode, I’ll break down:

• What QuickBooks Payroll actually does well for trucking companies
• The common gaps where it just isn’t built for driver pay
• Why per diem, multi-state compliance, and driver add-ons (like detention and layover) matter so much
• The hidden costs you may not see until it’s too late

I’m not here to bash QuickBooks — I’m here to be real with you. It’s a great tool for a lot of businesses. But for fleets? It can create more headaches than it solves.

👉 Tune in to hear both sides and decide for yourself whether QuickBooks Payroll is really serving your trucking company — or holding it back.
