    Why would you pay state income tax on loads that do not belong to you, but you transport?

    It's not your freight, so why pay income tax on something you don't own?

    I would really get clarification on this from them.

    You pay state income taxes on your wages, Just like you would your federal taxes. Income only

    Sounds strange,are these retail items you're transporting to a retail store.Won't they collect sales tax when they sell said items.As far as I know Washington State has no State Tax taken out of my paycheck ever.

    Verify that this office is legit. Sounds like a scam office trying to get free money off you. Washington state does not tax its citizens. The richest man in the world lives in Seattle.
