Great experience! It was very personalized and attentive. I had an emergency move and they managed to pick up the car just the next day after booking.
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 ❤️
Professional service and reasonable price considering they had to winch my car on the trailer.

Milwaukee County is one of seven in southeast Wisconsin where cars are tested for emissions, and that test is the part of shipping a car here that usually needs some planning, whether the car is leaving for a season or arriving for good. The road out is simpler. A car headed for the South or the East Coast goes around the bottom of Lake Michigan through the Chicago area first, since the lake leaves no shorter way east.
You can ask the DMV for a temporary exemption, renew the plates on it, and have the test done once the car is back. Cars kept in Milwaukee County and the other six are tested every other year before their plates are renewed, which would otherwise leave a car spending the winter in Florida, or a year with a student somewhere that doesn’t run the same test, unable to renew. So Wisconsin lets you email the DMV with the state and county where the car is kept and the date it will be home. That only works for a car that’s coming back, though, because one leaving Wisconsin for good is registered in its new state instead.
A car arriving in Milwaukee works the other way round. Wisconsin gives out-of-state plates no grace period, so the car is titled and registered here as soon as you live here, and most cars from the 1996 model year on then need the test within 45 days, which the DMV writes to tell you about.
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 from Milwaukee costs about $0.80 to $1.20 a mile on an open carrier, with the shorter runs costing more per mile. That's $1,100 to $1,350 to Dallas or Tampa, $1,400 to $1,750 to Phoenix.
A car shipped from Milwaukee usually spends 3 to 7 days on the truck. Dallas, Houston, Tampa and Miami take 3 to 5 days, Phoenix 4 to 6 and Los Angeles 4 to 7. These are estimates, because the driver is collecting and delivering other cars on the same trip.
You can cancel for free up to 7 days before pickup. After that, the deposit is non-refundable.
Every shipment is insured by the carrier under federal cargo liability requirements.
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.
The truck waits until the road is safe to drive, and your pickup or delivery date moves with it. We'll confirm the driver's new window with you as soon as the road reopens. Snow on the mountain passes and in the northern states, and hurricanes along the Gulf and Atlantic coasts, are the usual causes.
The deposit is charged 7 days before your pickup window opens; for a pickup inside 7 days it is held on your card at booking and charged when your driver is confirmed. The remaining balance is paid to the driver at delivery.
Your price holds for 28 days. Cancel free until 7 days before pickup.
