How Much Does It Cost to Ship a Car from Arizona to Florida?

As of September 2026, the average cost to ship a car from Arizona to Florida is about $1,144, with shipments typically running $800–$1,550 depending on the exact city pair, vehicle, and season. Open auto transport is the standard choice on this corridor; enclosed transport adds weather and debris protection for about 50% more.

What Factors Affect the Cost to Ship a Car?

Distance sets the baseline: the average driving distance on this route is about 2,140 miles, and longer city pairs cost more in total while costing less per mile—Phoenix to Jacksonville prices differently than Phoenix to Miami. From there, vehicle size and weight, open versus enclosed carrier, exact pickup and delivery locations, fuel prices, and season and timing move the number, though this corridor sees steadier year-round demand than the seasonal snowbird lanes. For the full breakdown, see our car shipping cost calculator.

Ranges reflect recent shipments for a standard sedan; SUVs and trucks typically add $100–$200. Enclosed figures are estimated at about 1.5× the open auto transport rate.

"I recently used RoadRunner Auto Transport to ship my Sprinter from Brooklyn to Miami, and the whole process went very smoothly. From the start, their team was responsive and easy to work with, keeping me updated throughout the transport. The pickup was on time, the delivery was right within the…"

"My car was shipped from Arizona to Florida. They kept me updated and they were spot on with time frame. Pricing was good and I would recommend RoadRunner to anybody that needs a car shipped. 5 Stars :-)"

"They made it 2 days before the scheduled drop off date. The vehicle belongs to my brother that passed away this October and they took great care of it from Phoenix Arizona to Orlando Florida...I loved how they kept me informed throughout the whole process...I highly recommend"

"Second time using them. Once from FL to AZ, and then just recently back to FL. Both times were smooth and easy! Pickup and drop-off is very well coordinated and they are fast! Both times I got my car 5 days after pick (2200 mile trip). Would definitely recommend them!"

Service Type

Open or Enclosed Transport for Arizona to Florida?

Open car transport is the right choice for the vast majority of Arizona to Florida shipments. This run rides I-10 nearly end to end, through El Paso and Houston to the Gulf Coast, and carriers make it every week, which makes open auto transport both the most available and the most economical way to ship a daily driver, SUV, or truck. Your car rides with 8–10 others on a multi-vehicle trailer, driven on via built-in ramps and secured to the deck for the run east.

Enclosed car shipping earns its premium of roughly 50% when the vehicle itself calls for it: luxury, classic, and exotic cars, a vehicle fresh off the dealer lot with no road miles, or anything you would not want exposed to weather and road debris over 2,100 miles. If you're weighing the two, our guide to the difference between enclosed and open auto transport covers it in detail.

One corridor-specific note: this run crosses the desert in the west and the Gulf Coast in the east. Neither affects transport schedules beyond the occasional summer storm day, but for collector cars with original paint or delicate interiors, enclosed transport keeps sun, humidity, and debris off the vehicle the entire way.

Expedited shipping is also available on this route when the calendar is not negotiable: guaranteed pickup windows and direct driver routes that get your vehicle to Florida faster. It is the option time-sensitive moves lean on, from corporate relocations to students starting a new semester.

Pickup and Delivery Notes for the Arizona to Florida Route

Most handoffs on this corridor are straightforward door-to-door pickups. The exceptions, we handle routinely.

Phoenix-area pickups

Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, and the surrounding suburbs are straightforward pickups with room for a full-size carrier at most addresses.

Retirement communities

Retirement and active-adult communities are everyday stops on both ends of this corridor—from the Valley and Tucson to every corner of Florida—and drivers know the access procedures.

Gated & HOA communities

Common on both ends. Provide a gate code or arrange a guest pass at booking and the driver coordinates the rest.

Condos & high-rises

Drivers meet at the loading zone, ground-floor entrance, or an adjacent lot with room for the truck.

Dealers, auctions & second homes

Dealer and auction lots on both ends work as handoff points, and seasonal properties are routine—a designated contact can release or receive the vehicle.

Desert & Gulf weather

The corridor runs year-round. Desert heat and Gulf storms rarely shift schedules by more than a day, and we communicate any delay proactively.

Getting Ready

Before the carrier arrives

Three things to handle between booking and pickup day. They take an hour in total and make both handoffs smooth.

1

Schedule in advance

Book 7–14 days ahead for the best rates, and 2–3 weeks during the early-summer moving season (May–July), when carrier space is tightest.

2

Prep and empty the vehicle

Wash the car, leave about a quarter tank of fuel, and remove personal items. Anything left inside is not protected against loss or damage in transit.

3

Inspect at pickup and delivery

Walk around the vehicle with the driver at both ends, photograph its condition, and note anything new on the Bill of Lading before signing.
