Fuel and MPG Log
See what a vehicle actually costs to run and spot a change in fuel consumption early, which is often the first sign that something mechanical is wrong.
Running costs and fleet · GF-08
A free printable toll and parking log — date, vehicle, driver, where, what for, amount, whether the receipt is held and which job it is recharged to.
One page. Choose your paper size — both versions are laid out identically, so neither one gets shrunk to fit.

The fillable versions have real form fields — open them in any PDF reader, type into them and save. Printing help.
Capture the road costs that never reach the fuel log, so an expense claim can be assembled from a record rather than from a pocketful of tickets.
Drivers who claim expenses, small operators recharging costs to customers, and anyone whose journeys involve tolls, crossings or paid parking.
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: The costs that never appear on a fuel receipt — tolls, congestion and clean-air charges, parking and ferries — logged per vehicle with the receipt tracked and the job it belongs to.
Separate from the fuel log on purpose. Keep this alongside the fuel log rather than inside it. Mixing a car park ticket in with litres and odometer readings makes the consumption figures harder to read and the expense claim harder to assemble.

Because a fuel log works on litres, odometer readings and consumption, and dropping a car park ticket into it spoils both. Keeping them apart leaves the fuel figures clean and makes the expense claim easier to assemble.
No. Claims are made over different periods and often split between jobs, so the sheet leaves the totalling to you rather than forcing everyone into one period.

Keep a contemporaneous mileage record in the vehicle, which is the kind that stands up, rather than one reconstructed at the year end.
Build a real picture of what an electric vehicle costs to run, and show the gap between home and public charging in your own figures.
Give a driver one sheet showing the whole run, with a signature line per drop and a place to record refusals and returns.
Every sheet, binder, game and puzzle on Upkeep Papers is free to download, with no email and no account. Making them is not free: each one takes days of research, design and checking, and the site costs money to run. If something here saved you time, you can buy us a coffee. It is entirely optional: nothing is locked, and nothing changes if you don’t.
