CDL Record Keeping Tips

Truck driver jobs in Portland aren’t all about spending your time traveling and seeing the sights; you’ll also need to keep track of your records. The sooner you subscribe to the right habits, the easier your trucking jobs will be, so get started during truck training school. Check out this video clip for a few CDL record keeping tips.

If you have a trucking job, trip reports and expense receipts are 2 types of records that you would do well to keep organized. The former will be turned in to your supervisor so you can ensure that you are paid the correct amount, but it can be a good idea to keep your own records as well. Expense receipts consist of receipts for parking, tools, and other job-related expenses. Collect these in a folder and keep them organized to make things easier for your accountant when tax season comes around.
