Bookkeeping Services for Logistics Companies
Logistics companies need bookkeeping that tracks freight billing, carrier settlements, and warehouse costs separately, since blending them hides which shipments actually make money.
Profitjets provides bookkeeping services built for logistics companies, reconciling carrier settlements automatically and allocating warehouse costs by client or contract.
Our logistics company accounting services reveal per-shipment margin, so you know which lanes and contracts are actually profitable. We help logistics businesses catch underpriced contracts before they quietly erode margin.

What Logistics Companies Say
Per-Shipment Margin We Finally Had Visibility Into
“We knew our overall margin but had no idea which shipments or lanes were actually profitable. Profitjets bookkeeping services built per-shipment margin tracking, and we found out we were losing money on an entire regional lane. We renegotiated our rates on that lane within a month of finding out.”
Carrier Settlements Reconciled Without the Manual Work
“Reconciling carrier settlements against our own freight billing used to take one of our staff most of a week every month. Profitjets outsourced bookkeeping services automated the matching, and that same reconciliation now takes an afternoon. That person now spends their time on things that actually grow the business.”
Warehouse Costs Finally Allocated Correctly
“Our warehouse operating costs were dumped into one general expense line instead of allocated by client or contract. Profitjets accounting services separated it out, and we found two client contracts that were actually priced below our real cost to serve them. Both have since been renegotiated.”
