Shipping from Phoenix, AZ

Phoenix is one of the most important auto transport hubs in the western United States. It sits right on I-10 which is the primary east to west corridor connecting LA to Houston. I-17 runs north to Vegas and I-40 catches the northern route across the country. Manheim Phoenix is a large and very active auction. The dealer market across Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa, Chandler, and Gilbert is deep. Phoenix is also one of the top snowbird destinations in the country, which means the transport demand in and out of this market is massive and consistent. Carriers love Phoenix because there is always a load.

Pickups in Phoenix are fast. Most of the time we get a carrier assigned within 1 to 2 days. The I-10 corridor is one of the busiest carrier lanes in America and Phoenix sits right in the middle of it. During snowbird season from October through April the demand from retirees moving cars back and forth to the Midwest and Northeast creates enormous carrier volume. Even in the summer when residents head north to escape the heat the market stays active. Give us a call or get a quote and we can usually lock in a carrier quickly.

Dealer density has grown significantly and auction activity is solid. This market is active and getting more active every year.

Delivering to Austin is strong. The inbound relocation traffic means carriers frequently need to fill their trucks heading to Austin from both coasts. From California, the Southwest, and the Northeast carriers run to Austin regularly. It is a desirable delivery market because carriers know they can find a return load. Expect 2 to 4 days on most routes.
