How do i track my mileage on a car?

I'm taking a business trip 2 hours away to Alabama… The expenses will be reimbursed… How do I track mileage? I drive a Honda Accord, if that makes a difference.

There's a few different ways use your odometer, look at your current mileage before the trip then record that number and do the math when you get back or use google maps to map out your route

These days most company's use google maps for accurate mileage readings. Using the directions mode.
It is so much easier!

Usually mileage is based on mapped distance from one location to the next. Some companies even have a list of their defined distance between their office and the towns most people drive to. If you are allowed to report mileage then you need to note starting and ending mileage on odometer every time you drive related to the trip. If they pay mileage that covers your gas costs and wear and tear on the vehicle and is usually at the allowable rate set by the IRS. If they pay actual expenses you fill up your gas tank at the beginning of the trip. Then during the trip you keep any gas receipts if you buy more, then fill up again at the end of the trip for the final amount of gas. Check to see if they cover actual meal and room expenses or have a set per diem rate they pay.

You re-set the tripometer to ZERO before you leave.

Set the trip odometer to zero, then look at it when you get back and see what the total is.

Before you leave write down the odometer reading on the car. When you get back write it down again. Then subtract the little number from the larger one. Turn that number in to the employer. Save gas receipts and lodging receipts, turn them in too.

Your odometer always tracks your milage, just note the reading before you leae and after, the difference is the distance you have travelled
