Moving company accounting by people who know trucks.
Moving company accounting from six accounting and bookkeeping firms that name movers as clients. The list is short because real specialists are rare, and we did not pad it.
Accounting and bookkeeping for moving companies.
Few accounting firms focus on moving companies. One works with movers only. The others are CPA and bookkeeping firms that name moving companies among their clients.

Books that show where the money goes.
A moving company can be busy all summer and still run out of cash in February. Good books show profit per truck and per job, not one number at year end. Ask an accountant about these before you sign.
How many moving companies they work with today.
Reports by truck, crew, and job type, not just a total P&L.
Crew payroll, overtime, and employee versus contractor questions.
Depreciation on trucks and equipment, and how it affects your tax bill.
Seasonal cash flow planning for the slow months.
Which software they work in, and whether it connects to your CRM.
Common questions
Short answers for owners looking for an accountant.
It helps. A firm that knows moving understands per-truck profitability, crew payroll, seasonal cash flow, and how trucks and equipment are depreciated. True specialists are rare, which is why this list is short.
A bookkeeper records and reconciles your transactions every month and produces your reports. A CPA is licensed to prepare and sign tax returns, represent you before the IRS, and perform audits. Many small movers use a bookkeeper monthly and a CPA at tax time. Some firms on this list do both.
Most firms on this list quote after a call and do not publish prices. The one published price here starts at $85 per month for basic remote bookkeeping. Expect more for a firm that also handles payroll, tax, and CFO-level reporting.
Revenue and direct cost per job, labor as a share of revenue, cost per truck, claims paid, and marketing cost per booked move. If your books cannot produce those five, the reports are not built for a moving business yet.
No. Moving software handles invoicing, payments, and sometimes payroll data, and some platforms connect to QuickBooks. You still need someone to reconcile the books, file taxes, and tell you what the numbers mean.
From web research and each firm's own site. We kept firms that name moving companies as clients or as a practice area, and left off trucking-only firms and general bookkeepers with no stated moving clients.
