What changes how you run Georgia
Savannah drayage and Atlanta's ring road congestion are the two factors that most affect achievable daily miles in this state.
Whichever corridors you run, the arithmetic is the same: a load is worth taking when it clears your cost per mile across every mile you turn, deadhead included. Fleetchart keeps that figure current from the paperwork instead of asking you to rebuild it each month.
Fuel tax in Georgia
The IFTA tax rate matrix lists Georgia's special diesel rate for 4Q 2026 at $0.3730 per gallon — the 3rd lowest of the 10 states we cover in depth. On your IFTA return, Georgia charges that rate on the gallons your miles here burned, then credits the tax you already paid on diesel bought here.
If your trucks are registered in Georgia and your records are kept here, Georgia is your base jurisdiction: you license with Georgiaand file one quarterly return there for every member state you ran in. Returns are due the last day of the month after each quarter.
| State | Rate |
|---|---|
| Texas | $0.2000 |
| Tennessee | $0.2700 |
| Georgia | $0.3730 |

Questions from Georgia carriers
- Does Fleetchart work for carriers based in Georgia?

- What are the main freight corridors in Georgia?
- I-75, I-85, I-20, I-95, I-16 carry the bulk of through and regional freight, with principal hubs at Atlanta, Savannah, Macon, Columbus.
- Does Fleetchart handle IFTA reporting for Georgia?
- fleetchart builds your quarterly IFTA worksheet: miles and fuel by state side by side, with miles from a Motive ELD or typed from trip sheets and fuel from EFS or Comdata statement imports. It flags things that look off, like fuel bought in a state with no miles, and sends the worksheet to your preparer. It does not file the return — that stays with you or your preparer.
