Georgia to Arizona Auto Transport Challenges & Tips
Georgia to Arizona is a trip of about 1,750 to 2,050 miles, most of it across Texas and the desert Southwest. Long empty stretches, summer heat and monsoon dust storms cause most of the delays. Here's what to plan for.
Long Stretches Across Texas
Trucks heading west on I-20 and I-10 cross hundreds of miles of West Texas with few big towns. A breakdown or a closed road out there can cost a driver half a day, so the schedule has some slack built in.
Monsoon Dust Storms
From mid-June through September, Arizona's monsoon storms can kick up walls of dust that drop visibility to almost nothing, especially on I-10 between Tucson and Phoenix. Drivers pull off the road and wait them out.
Summer Heat
Phoenix summers often reach 110 degrees or more, especially along I-10 and I-17. Heat is hard on weak batteries and old tires, so have both checked before pickup, and plan to meet the driver in the morning if you can.
Tip: Book Early for Snowbird Season
From October through December, many winter residents send their cars to Arizona, and prices and wait times go up. If you are moving in the fall, book two to three weeks ahead.
Tip: Register Right Away in Arizona
Arizona asks new residents to register their cars as soon as they become residents. Bring your Georgia title and registration. Some cars in the Phoenix and Tucson areas need an emissions test first, and your insurance must come from a company licensed in Arizona.
Tip: Prepare Your Vehicle Properly
Clean your car and remove personal items before pickup. Take date-stamped photos from every side, keep the gas tank at a quarter full or less, and check tire pressure. For a full checklist, read our article on Preparing Your Car for Transport.

Yes. Carriers with a winch can load and unload a car that doesn't run, as long as it rolls, steers and brakes. Expect to pay about $150 to $300 more than for a running car, and tell us the car doesn't run when you request quotes so you are matched with the right carrier. Shipping an Inoperable Vehicle explains how it works.
