Enter your origin and destination to get the miles for each state in the route
The IRP is a cooperative agreement among U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and Canadian provinces to manage and collect fees based on the proportion of distance traveled in each jurisdiction. Using our state mileage breakdown tool helps ensure compliance by accurately calculating the mileage for each state in your route.
How the State Mileage Breakdown works
- Enter your origin and destination by city or ZIP code.
- The tool builds the driving route between the two points.
- Get the mileage split by state — how many of the route's miles fall inside each jurisdiction, in order.
Why per-state miles matter: IRP and IFTA
Interstate carriers don't pay registration and fuel taxes to a single state — they pay each jurisdiction in proportion to the miles driven there. The IRP apportions your plate fees by state mileage, and IFTA requires quarterly fuel-tax reporting by jurisdiction. A clean per-state breakdown of each trip is the raw material for both filings (reconcile against your ELD/odometer records for the official numbers).
State mileage FAQs
What is the State Mileage Breakdown tool?
It maps the driving route between your origin and destination and reports how many miles fall within each state along the way — the per-jurisdiction mileage you need for IRP and IFTA reporting and trip planning.
What is the IRP (International Registration Plan)?
The IRP is an agreement among U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and Canadian provinces that apportions commercial vehicle registration fees by the share of miles driven in each jurisdiction. Accurate per-state mileage is what those fees are based on.
What is IFTA, and how does state mileage relate to it?
The International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA) requires carriers to report fuel use and miles by jurisdiction each quarter. A per-state mileage breakdown of each trip is the basis for that filing.
How is the per-state mileage calculated?
The tool builds the driving route between your two points, then measures how much of that route's distance lies inside each state's borders.
Can I use this for official IRP/IFTA filing?
It's an accurate planning and estimating tool based on the driving route, and many carriers use it to prepare and sanity-check filings. For official reporting, always reconcile against your trucks' actual odometer or ELD records.
Is the State Mileage Breakdown tool free?
Yes — it's free to use and requires no account.
