Semi trailer (dry van or reefer)
$40,000-$90,000
Can You Write Off Semi Trailer?
Short answer: Yes: dry vans, reefers, and flatbeds you own are deductible trailers, separate from the tractor.
Semi tractors and trailers are 3-year property for over-the-road use and can be fully expensed with 100% bonus depreciation; heavy highway use tax (Form 2290) and IFTA fuel taxes are deductible too.
Records to keep: Keep the purchase contract, the door-jamb GVWR sticker photo, and a mileage log showing business vs personal miles.
