Bookkeeping, Tax and CFO Services for the Inland Empire
The Inland Empire moves more goods than almost anywhere in America. Over 700 million square feet of warehouse space now lines the I-10 and I-15 corridor, roughly 70,000 owner-operators run trucks under full AB5 enforcement, and Temecula Valley wineries drive a $905 million economy. FIG keeps the books, payroll, and tax filings behind all of it clean, from Ontario to Perris to Wine Country.
Built on Movement and Dirt
Logistics alone accounts for roughly 14 percent of the Inland Empire economy and about 20 percent of all jobs in San Bernardino County, the fastest-growing sector in the region over the last two decades. Layer trucking, construction, and Temecula wine country on top, and each one needs a fundamentally different kind of bookkeeping.
Services Shaped by What You Move
Job costing for the contractors pouring 55 million square feet of new warehouse since 2023, IFTA mileage tracking for the owner-operators now under full AB5 enforcement, and inventory costing for wineries pulling a $905 million economy. The same three core services, adapted to how the Inland Empire actually works.
Bookkeeping
Monthly reconciliation, clean P&L and Balance Sheet, and a year-end tax-ready package delivered by the 15th. We build project-level job costing for construction firms in Riverside and San Bernardino, and track warehouse lease costs and inventory turns for the distribution centers that now cover over 700 million square feet across the region.
- Project-level job costing
- Warehouse lease & inventory accounting
- Year-end tax-ready package
Payroll
Direct deposit, tax filings, W-2s and 1099s handled on time, every time. We run crew payroll for construction companies and handle driver pay, owner-operator settlements, and per-mile tracking for trucking fleets out of Ontario and Perris, where AB5 has made getting worker classification right more expensive than ever to get wrong.
- Owner-operator settlements
- Crew & driver payroll
- W-2s & 1099s
Tax Preparation
Proactive tax planning that keeps you compliant while lowering your bill. We handle IFTA and fuel tax reporting for truckers, structure Section 179 and bonus depreciation for equipment-heavy construction and logistics firms, and keep AB5 worker classification clean for the owner-operators now facing full enforcement and rising audit risk in 2026.

AB5 and the Owner-Operator Trucker: Get This Wrong and It Costs You
California Assembly Bill 5 changed how owner-operators are classified, and full enforcement in 2026 has brought a fresh wave of audits, lawsuits, and compliance costs to the Inland Empire trucking community, which felt this law first and hardest. There are roughly 70,000 owner-operators driving in California now living under these rules. Misclassifying a driver as an independent contractor when the law says otherwise can trigger back taxes, penalties, and audits that sink a fleet. We are not your attorney, but we make sure your books reflect your worker relationships accurately and flag inconsistencies before they become a problem. If you are restructuring your driver arrangements, talk to us early.
