"Wait, I can deduct that?"
That's the most common reaction we hear from Amazon Flex drivers when they learn about mileage deductions. If you're delivering packages for Amazon Flex, you're not just a driver – you're a business owner. And like any savvy business owner, you should be taking advantage of every tax deduction available to you.
Picture this: You wake up, grab your coffee, and head to the Amazon distribution center. A typical day might include 15 miles to the distribution center, 85 miles zigzagging through neighborhoods delivering packages, and 10 miles back home after your last delivery. That's 110 miles in just one day. Now multiply that by how many days you drive each week. Those miles are literally money in motion.
Let's cut through the confusion and talk real numbers. The 2025 IRS mileage rate isn't just some random number – it's your ticket to significant tax savings. This rate factors in everything your vehicle endures while you're out there hustling, from rising fuel costs to vehicle wear and tear, insurance expenses, and maintenance.
For Amazon Flex drivers, this rate is your standardized way to deduct vehicle expenses without keeping every single receipt. When you multiply your total business miles by the IRS rate, you get your total mileage deduction. It's that simple. For example, if you drive 20,000 miles per year for Amazon Flex deliveries, even a small change in the mileage rate can mean hundreds of dollars difference in your tax deductions. The IRS carefully calculates this rate by considering national averages for gas prices, maintenance costs, depreciation, and insurance – making it a reliable reflection of the true cost of operating your vehicle for business.
Let's be honest – between scanning packages, navigating traffic, finding optimal delivery routes, and maintaining your customer rating, who has time to write down odometer readings? This is exactly why most Amazon Flex drivers leave money on the table at tax time. Most drivers who switch from manual logging to automatic tracking discover they were missing up to 40% of their deductible miles.
Think about all the small trips that add up during your shift: the drive to pick up more packages, the detours around construction, the extra miles when a customer provides the wrong address, or when you need to find parking in a busy neighborhood. Without automatic tracking, these valuable deductible miles slip through the cracks. Even the most diligent drivers can't remember every turn and detour at the end of a long day. This is where Everlance and the power of automatic mileage tracking becomes clear – it catches every mile, every turn, and every detour, turning what used to be lost deductions into real tax savings.
