Case Study: Marathon Moving Company achieves 30 hours per month in payroll time savings with QuickBooks

How the right time tracking and payroll solutions provide tangible savings and intangible relief

Marathon Moving Company is a full-service moving business that grew to four trucks and 20 employees who are frequently on the road. Keeping track of who was working where — and reconciling payroll — became time-consuming and error-prone, with the owner reporting weekly overpayments or underpayments by thousands and a payroll process that created major stress and wasted time.

By adopting QuickBooks Payroll together with QuickBooks Time’s mobile GPS time tracking, Marathon streamlined clock-ins, timesheets, and payroll submission. Payroll prep dropped from about 10 hours a week to roughly 45 minutes, cutting around 30 hours a month in headaches, halving costs in practice and eliminating frequent pay errors — restoring accuracy, reducing stress, and improving employee pay reliability.
