MileLog: Mileage Tracker for Self-Employed Couriers UK
MileLog is currently available for iPhone and iPad through the App Store. These tips are for drivers who track work trips with an iOS device.
Self-employed couriers in the UK need reliable records.
If you deliver food, parcels, groceries, or local orders, your vehicle is part of your work. The miles you drive affect your costs, your profit, and your tax records.
MileLog helps UK couriers track work miles automatically and keep a clear mileage log.
Why couriers need mileage tracking
Courier work often includes:
- pickup trips
- customer deliveries
- routes with many stops
- driving between busy areas
- returning from a far drop-off
- work errands
If you do not track these miles as they happen, they can be hard to remember later.
Tax record basics
For official UK tax information, use GOV.UK and HMRC resources such as Self Assessment tax returns. Your accountant or tax adviser can tell you what applies to your own situation.
MileLog helps with the driving log.

UK couriers should separate work miles from personal driving
Self-employed couriers in the UK often mix work and personal driving in the same day. That makes clean categories important. Mark delivery work as business and keep school runs, shopping, and personal errands separate.
This is useful whether you use simplified mileage records or another method recommended by your tax adviser. The important part is that your driving history is clear.
UK courier notes that help
Good notes can be short: "Deliveroo car shift," "Just Eat dinner shift," "Amazon Flex block," "parcel route," or "return from delivery area."
These notes help explain why the trip was work-related and make the report easier to read later.
