Every price on this page is an estimate based on road miles, shown as a range. The final price depends on your vehicle, your dates and whether you choose open or enclosed transport. A 389-mile Mesa to Los Angeles move is estimated at $354–$506. A 954-mile Dallas to Tucson move is estimated at $661–$944. Short runs inside Arizona, such as Phoenix to Tucson, are quoted on request.
Distance is the biggest driver, but price does not grow in step with miles. Phoenix to Denver (821 miles) is estimated at $586–$837, while New York to Phoenix (2,407 miles) is estimated at $1,078–$1,540. The New York trip is about 2.9 times as far but costs less than twice as much.
Direction matters very little. The same pair of cities is usually priced within a few dollars both ways, for example Los Angeles to Tucson at $419–$599 and Tucson to Los Angeles at $420–$600, or Atlanta to Phoenix at $1,025–$1,464 and Phoenix to Atlanta at $1,024–$1,463. A one-way move costs about the same whether Arizona is the start or the end, which is useful for snowbirds who ship a car south in the fall and back north in the spring.

Phoenix, Mesa, Tempe, Scottsdale, Chandler and Gilbert form one continuous metro around Interstates 10 and 17, US-60 and the Loop 101 and 202 freeways. Streets are wide and gridded, which suits car haulers, but many neighborhoods are gated or managed by homeowner associations, so drivers often meet at the entrance or a nearby lot. Mesa to Los Angeles is 389 miles, estimated $354–$506, Phoenix to Denver is 821 miles at $586–$837, and Gilbert to San Antonio is 970 miles at $672–$960.
Cities 6West of Phoenix, Glendale, Peoria, Surprise, Avondale and Goodyear are newer suburbs with wide streets, and several host spring training ballparks. South along Interstate 10, Maricopa and Casa Grande sit between Phoenix and Tucson in Pinal County. Routes into the Phoenix area are priced the same way for these suburbs: Albuquerque to Phoenix is 420 miles, estimated $365–$521, and Minneapolis to Phoenix is 1,643 miles at $1,001–$1,429.
Cities 7Tucson sits southeast of Phoenix on Interstate 10, with Interstate 19 running south to Nogales and State Route 90 to Sierra Vista. The area has the University of Arizona and military bases, so student and service-member moves are common. Los Angeles to Tucson is 483 miles, estimated $419–$599, San Antonio to Tucson is 871 miles at $622–$888, and Dallas to Tucson is 954 miles at $661–$944.
Cities 4Flagstaff is a university town high in the pines, where Interstates 17 and 40 meet. Winter snow is a real factor here: storms can close the road or slow a trailer, so allow extra time between November and March. Sedona, to the south, has narrow, winding streets where a full-size carrier cannot turn, so drivers usually meet at a wide road or a large lot. Request a quote with your pickup address, vehicle and dates, and we will confirm the carrier, the price and the likely pickup day.
Cities 2Prescott and Chino Valley sit in the mountains northwest of Phoenix, cooler than the desert and away from the main interstates. Most cars reach the area by State Route 69 or US-89 from the Valley, so carriers often arrange a meeting point at a wide road or large lot. Because this is a retirement and second-home market, many winter residents ship cars in spring and fall. Expect to coordinate pickup a little more closely than in the Valley, and book a few days early so the dispatcher can fit your car on a truck.
Cities 2Yuma lies on Interstate 8, close to California and Mexico, and the San Diego to Phoenix route runs through the area. Yuma has a large winter-visitor population and military activity, so demand rises when the snowbirds arrive. Along the Colorado River, Lake Havasu City and Bullhead City, and Kingman on Interstate 40, are reached from Las Vegas or Phoenix, and the Las Vegas to Phoenix route passes through the Kingman area. These towns are further from the main hubs, so book a little earlier and request a quote with your pickup address and date.
Cities 3Plan for two clocks. The first is the pickup window: a carrier is normally assigned and arrives 1–3 business days after booking. The second is transit, which depends on distance. On our Arizona routes it runs 1–2 days for trips up to about 700 miles, 2–3 days from 700 to about 1,100 miles, 2–4 days from roughly 1,100 to 1,400 miles, 3–5 days from 1,400 to about 1,700 miles, 4–7 days at around 1,750 miles, 5–8 days from about 1,800 to 2,500 miles, and 7–9 days at 2,500 to 2,900 miles.
Arizona adds a few local factors. Interstate 10 between Phoenix and Tucson is flat and fast, but Phoenix freeways are busy at rush hour, which can slow pickup and delivery in the Valley. Heading north, Interstate 17 climbs from the desert to Flagstaff, where winter snow can close or slow the road, and Interstate 40 across northern Arizona is exposed to the same weather. In summer, monsoon storms bring dust, heavy rain and flash flooding, and extreme heat leads many drivers to start early. Any of these can add a day or more to an estimate.
Inside the Valley, the practical question is usually the pickup day rather than the drive. A Phoenix, Mesa or Scottsdale address with a wide street and a clear time window is easier to assign than a gated driveway, and a second contact number plus a flexible two-day window helps the dispatcher fit your car onto a route that is already running. If you are flying out the day your car is collected, tell us in advance so someone can hand over the keys.
Examples from our route pages: Phoenix to Tucson (113 miles) is 1–2 days, Los Angeles to Phoenix (372 miles) is 1–2 days, Phoenix to Denver (821 miles) is 2–3 days, Houston to Phoenix (1,177 miles) is 2–4 days, Seattle to Tucson (1,526 miles) is 3–5 days, Chicago to Phoenix (1,754 miles) is 4–7 days, and Phoenix to Boston (2,647 miles) is 7–9 days.
Pickup is usually scheduled within a 1–3 business day window after booking; transit time depends on the distance.
| Zone | Transit |
|---|---|
| West Coast & Pacific Northwest | 1–5 days |
| Mountain West & Southwest | 1–3 days |
| Texas & South Central | 1–4 days |
| Great Lakes & Ohio Valley | 3–8 days |
| Southeast & Florida | 4–8 days |
| Mid-Atlantic | 5–8 days |
| Northeast & New England | 5–9 days |
Arizona’s dry climate keeps many classic and collector cars in good shape, and Scottsdale hosts well-known collector-car auctions every January, so the Valley has a steady market for enclosed transport. If your vehicle is valuable, low to the ground or newly delivered, an enclosed trailer protects it from road debris, desert sun, dust and monsoon hail. Open carriers are the standard choice for everyday cars and cost less. Read more about enclosed transport and open transport. Tell us which you want when you request your quote, and we will match your car with the right carrier. Because enclosed trailers hold fewer cars and fewer carriers run them, availability on a given date can be tighter than for open trucks, so book enclosed shipments a little earlier, especially in January and from smaller Arizona towns.
Arizona’s winter population is a defining feature of the car-shipping market. Every fall, retirees and seasonal residents from the northern states move to the Phoenix area, Tucson, Yuma and the Colorado River towns, and many prefer to have their own car waiting rather than driving it or buying a second one. In spring they go back north, and the same cars travel the other way.
The main flows on our routes are from the Midwest. Chicago to Tucson is 1,729 miles, estimated at $992–$1,418 with 4–7 days of transit. Minneapolis to Phoenix is 1,643 miles, estimated at $1,001–$1,429, 3–5 days. St. Louis to Phoenix is 1,458 miles, estimated $939–$1,341, 3–5 days. In the spring the same pairs run in reverse, such as Mesa to Chicago at $998–$1,426 and Scottsdale to Chicago at $999–$1,427, so you can expect the return trip to cost about what the arrival did.
A few habits make a snowbird shipment smoother. Book as soon as you know your dates: carriers fill up in October and November and again in March and April. Choose the delivery city closest to where you will park the car, because gated communities and retirement communities often have narrow entrances that a full-size carrier cannot use, in which case the driver will meet you at a nearby lot or wide street. If you will not be in Arizona the day the car arrives, name someone to receive it, and ask them to inspect the car and sign the report while you are on the phone.
Spring is also a good moment to consider enclosed transport for a classic or a convertible that has spent the winter under the desert sun.
The corridor between Phoenix and Tucson is the busiest in-state route we list and the most visited Arizona route in our search data. It follows Interstate 10 through the desert, past Casa Grande, with little elevation change and long straight stretches. Phoenix to Tucson takes 1–2 days of transit, and Tucson to Phoenix is priced the same. Because the trip is short, request a quote with your pickup and delivery addresses.
Other cities in the two metros follow the same pattern. Mesa to Tucson, Scottsdale to Tucson and Tucson to Scottsdale are all 1–2 days. These are the lowest-cost runs in Arizona because they are the shortest, and they are quoted on request.
On a short trip the pickup window can be the longest part of the timeline. Plan on the standard 1–3 business days after booking, then add transit. In the Valley, many drivers prefer an early start in summer, so pickups may be scheduled for the morning. Tucson addresses near the university or in older neighborhoods can have narrow streets, and carriers may ask to meet at a nearby wide road or a shopping center.
If you are weighing a drive against shipping, compare the estimate with fuel, a hotel night, time off work and the cost of a one-way trip home. For a student moving a car between Tempe and Tucson, or a snowbird with homes in both cities, shipping can be cheaper than the day it takes to drive twice. For a longer in-state move, request a quote and give us your pickup and delivery cities; our estimates are based on road miles, the same way as on the interstate routes.
Most cars shipped into Arizona land in the Phoenix metro or in Tucson, so pick the delivery city that is closest to your new address. Every extra mile from a main hub can raise the estimate. From the west, Los Angeles to Tucson is 483 miles, estimated at $419–$599 in 1–2 days, and Mesa to Los Angeles is 389 miles at $354–$506. Shorter runs such as Los Angeles to Phoenix, San Diego to Phoenix and Las Vegas to Phoenix are quoted on request.
Texas and the Mountain West are other large sources. San Antonio to Tucson (871 miles) is estimated at $622–$888 for 2–3 days, and El Paso to Phoenix (431 miles) at $374–$534 for 1–2 days. From Utah, Salt Lake City to Phoenix (662 miles) is $491–$702, and Albuquerque to Phoenix (420 miles) is $365–$521. From the Southeast, Atlanta to Phoenix (1,807 miles) is estimated at $1,025–$1,464 and takes 5–8 days, and Miami to Tempe (2,360 miles) is $1,074–$1,534, also 5–8 days. From the Northeast, New York to Phoenix (2,407 miles) is $1,078–$1,540 and takes 5–8 days.
When you book, decide whether you will be in Arizona for the delivery. If not, you can name someone to receive the car, but they should inspect it, with you on the phone, and note any new damage on the paperwork before the driver leaves. Allow 1–3 business days for pickup, then the transit range, and a day of buffer. If you need the car on a fixed date after a cross-country move, build in a buffer of a few days, especially in summer storm season or in winter if your route crosses the mountains.
Moving in the middle of the summer? Keep the fuel tank low, remove loose items from the car, and ask for an early-morning pickup so you are not standing on hot asphalt at noon.
Request a fast, accurate car shipping quote by providing vehicle details, locations, and transport type (open or enclosed). We offer transparent pricing for door-to-door, cross-country, or expedited shipping—no hidden fees.
After booking, we arrange door-to-door pickup. A driver inspects your vehicle, then loads it using secure equipment. Choose open transport for cost savings or enclosed transport for extra protection. Tracking and updates are available throughout transit.
Track your vehicle via eBOL. We deliver it to your chosen location, perform a final inspection, and complete the handoff. Safe, insured, and on-time delivery for any vehicle type.
Our estimates on Arizona routes range from $354–$506 for Mesa to Los Angeles to $1,092–$1,559 for New York to Tempe. Typical examples: El Paso to Phoenix $374–$534, Salt Lake City to Phoenix $491–$702, Dallas to Tucson $661–$944, Minneapolis to Phoenix $1,001–$1,429. These are estimates based on road miles, and the final price depends on your vehicle, dates and open or enclosed transport. Short runs inside Arizona are quoted on request.
After booking, a carrier is normally assigned within 1–3 business days. Transit is then 1–2 days from Southern California, El Paso or Salt Lake City, 2–3 days from Denver or Dallas, 3–5 days from Minneapolis, 4–7 days from Chicago, and 5–8 days from Atlanta, Miami or New York. Chicago to Tucson, for example, is 4–7 days of transit. Winter snow in the Rockies or summer storms can add more.
Yes, and many snowbirds do. Book as soon as your dates are set, since October, November, March and April are the busiest months. Chicago to Tucson is estimated at $992–$1,418 with 4–7 days of transit, and Minneapolis to Phoenix at $1,001–$1,429. The return trip in spring is priced about the same, for example Mesa to Chicago at $998–$1,426.
Los Angeles to Tucson is 483 miles, estimated $419–$599, and takes 1–2 days of transit. Mesa to Los Angeles is 389 miles at $354–$506. Add the usual 1–3 business days for a carrier to be assigned and reach your door. Prices are nearly the same in both directions, so Tucson to Los Angeles is $420–$600.
Yes. Enclosed carriers serve the Phoenix metro, Scottsdale and Tucson, and enclosed is a common choice for classic, exotic and collector cars, particularly around the January auctions in Scottsdale. Enclosed costs more than open transport, and our route estimates show one range, so ask for an enclosed quote when you request prices for your route. Book earlier than you would for open transport, since fewer enclosed trailers run on each lane.
Often yes, but a full-size carrier may not fit through the gate or on narrow community streets. In that case the driver will meet you at a nearby wide street or large parking lot, and you sign the inspection report at pickup. Tell us the address and any gate or community rules when you book, have someone present at both ends, and take your own photos before the car leaves.
We can transport a wide range of vehicles in Arizona, including cars, trucks, SUVs, motorcycles, and even specialty vehicles like classic cars and oversized trucks. Our services are designed to accommodate both standard and unique transportation needs.
We provide auto transport services throughout Arizona, including major cities such as Phoenix, Tucson, Mesa, and Scottsdale, as well as rural areas and smaller towns. Whether you're moving across the state or relocating to a different part of Arizona, we can help.
Yes, we offer door-to-door auto transport, meaning the carrier will pick up and deliver your vehicle as close to your specified locations as possible. In some cases, due to narrow streets or local restrictions, you may need to meet the carrier at a nearby location.
While we expect carriers to deliver all vehicles without damage, accidents can happen. It is important for customers to inspect their vehicles upon receipt. If damage is noticed, customers should contact our office asap. Damage should be documented on the “Bill of Lading” received from the driver. If a report is not made in a timely manner we will not be able to assist you with the damage.
All our carriers are fully licensed, insured, and vetted to meet federal and state regulations. We work only with professional, experienced transporters to ensure the safe delivery of your vehicle.
“I contacted Freedom Auto Transport under short notice and they delivered. Got my vehicle picked up in Dallas, TX the same day, it took about 3 days to get delivered. Driver contacted me prior to arrival on both ends and was very friendly. Very easy to do business with. Thanks again.”
“I wanted to share my experience dealing with Freedom Auto Transport. Could not have gone any smoother. Called up Tuesday morning, had my vehicle picked up and on a trailer the very next day! Wow! Everyone I spoke to at Freedom was extremely helpful and friendly. Very pleased with my experience and would 10000% recommend Freedom to anyone that needs auto transport service. Thanks again..”
“Freedom was great, Dan S. with Freedom was the only carrier who could deliver on the dates I needed. I contacted several transporters, the prices and dates changed every 5 minutes. Dan was very helpful every step of the way, and extremely reasonable! I will use these guys from this point forward, make one call and it’s a done deal! Thanks Dan!”
Freedom Auto Transport runs a solid operation. Dorian is the reason I chose this carrier even though I had all but agreed to work with a different hauler. He was fast to return my calls, texted frequently, and used all his contacts to arrange a quick turnaround on the 4Runner I shipped. He almost managed to get a same day pick-up but the dealership I was working with couldn’t complete the paperwork in time for an evening pick up. Easy paperwork/signatures. No heavy sales pitch. Just familiarity with how the industry works, good relationships to leverage, and the urgency to help. I think he really feels good knowing he’s helping to deliver something meaningful to others. Ive used different companies each time I’ve shipped a vehicle but the next time I need a car or truck shipped, I want to work with Dorian. Cheers!
