Pricing refreshed monthly based on current carrier rates.
Quotes well below the typical range are almost always bait. The broker holds your booking, then pumps up the price last minute when no carrier accepts the rate.
Insured under federal cargo liability requirements. Coverage is part of the quote, not an add-on.
Your quote is locked for 28 days. Cancel free up to 7 days before pickup.
Most shipments run door to door. If access is tight (narrow streets, low clearance), we will arrange a nearby meeting point.
One percent of every booking funds Clean Air Task Force, a nonprofit working on transport and energy emissions.
It is a really professional company, and the service was great, and we also really value the environmental contributions they are doing. Thank you guys!! Will move my car again with you ❤️
We had to send the car back to the dealership in Georgia and Sequoia did a really great job for us. Highly recommended!!!

Florida is one of the most-shipped-to and most-shipped-from states in the US. Carrier supply is dense in both directions on most corridors year-round, mostly because of snowbird migration and high inbound retiree relocation. Pickup usually happens within a few days of booking.
Pricing varies by origin city, destination city, and season. Inbound from the Northeast (New York, Boston, Philadelphia) runs $750 to $1,150 in most months. Inbound from the West Coast (California, Washington) is $1,300 to $2,100 because of distance. Snowbird corridors see price spikes of 15 to 25% in October through December and again in March through May, when demand peaks.
Florida has state-specific quirks worth knowing. Hurricane season (June through November) can briefly tighten carrier supply on coastal corridors when storms route around weather. Pickup in the Florida Keys requires meeting the driver on the mainland. Full-length transport trailers cannot safely navigate the Overseas Highway.
One percent of every booking goes to Clean Air Task Force, a nonprofit working on policy and technology to clean up transport and energy emissions.

Shipping a car to Florida typically costs between $700 and $2,100 for open transport, depending on origin and vehicle. Inbound from the Northeast or Midwest runs $750 to $1,150 in most months. Inbound from the West Coast is $1,300 to $2,100 because of distance. Specific quotes are locked for 28 days from the moment you book.

Snowbird traffic shapes Florida pricing. Inbound corridors from the Northeast and Midwest see demand spikes from October through December, pushing prices up 15 to 25%. The same corridors run cheapest in summer and early fall. Outbound from Florida sees the mirror spike from March through May.
Florida requires vehicle registration within 30 days of establishing residency. Your title travels with the car during shipping. Once you arrive, visit a Florida Tax Collector office with your out-of-state title, proof of insurance from a Florida insurer, and a VIN inspection (most counties handle the inspection in-office).
To ship a car, request a quote with your origin, destination, and vehicle details. Sequoia matches you with a driver according to your pickup window, the driver picks up your vehicle, and delivers it at your destination.
Open transport is the standard choice for most vehicles. Enclosed transport costs 30 to 45% more and is appropriate for high-value vehicles, classics, low-clearance sports cars, and any car where weather exposure or road debris is a real concern.
If you find damage at delivery, note it on the bill of lading before signing. We will manage the claim with the carrier from there.
Nothing is charged at booking. The deposit is charged 7 days before your pickup window opens, and the remaining balance is paid to the driver at delivery.
Every shipment is insured by the carrier under federal cargo liability requirements.
