How long does it take to transport a car to and from Phoenix, AZ?
Auto transport is a logistics business, just like hauling freight; that means that drivers have to stay on schedule and meet deadlines. Drivers will take the most direct, simplest route they can for vehicle transport, usually taking advantage of the layout of the US Interstate Highway system that was designed for that efficient kind of travel. That said, it’s important to keep in mind that seasonal delays, weather, road conditions, construction and possible detours can all delay a driver on his route. In most instances, though, a trip of 200 miles or so can be completed in two days. A 2,000 mile run is usually done in a seven-to-nine-day window.
Regardless of the distance and timeframe, we can assure you that SGT Auto Transport will always optimize that experience and do whatever it takes to get the job done in a safe and timely manner.

The best ways and methods to ship a car to or from Phoenix, AZ
In most instances, our preferred and recommended system for auto transport to or from Phoenix is going to be enclosed car transport. With enclosed car transport, your vehicle has the benefit of being completely sealed up and protected on all four sides. Your vehicle will be loaded into a professional-grade trailer, then locked up securely where it’s protected from road grit, weather extremes and curious onlookers, making it a logical choice for very valuable, rare or delicate vehicles. We can also help you out for hotshot deliveries or last-minute arrangements, with guaranteed pickup and express auto transport; one of our consultants will be happy to help you set that up.

How long does it take to transport a car to and from Phoenix?
With a major city like Phoenix, there’s a comprehensive system of Interstate highways, arterials and US highways to make travel to or from the city more efficient and convenient. While seasonal surges, road conditions, construction, weather or detours can all have an impact on scheduling, you can usually count on a driver covering a distance of 200 miles in two days. For a run of 2,000 miles, that’s something that can usually be completed in a 7 to 9 day period.
We should also mention that seasonal patterns in booking and traffic can be a consideration. When more people are booking auto transport jobs, the availability of drivers and transport trucks can be a little more tricky, and highways see a lot more traffic around holidays. No matter what, though, SGT Auto Transport is your go-to resource for getting your vehicle where it needs to go, on-budget, on-time and on-point.
I will definitely consider SGT Auto Transport when I'm ready to purchase and move my new car.

Tips for Phoenix Car Shipping Services
Are you very familiar with Phoenix? Here are some interesting facts about this major city in the Southwest:
Phoenix is one of the hottest cities in America; interestingly, it doesn’t observe Daylight Savings Time for just that reason.
Phoenix is the 5th most populous city in the United States.
Phoenix is in the middle of the Sonoran Desert, which is an unusually green and wet desert topography. The saguaro cactus is native to the Sonoran Desert; saguaros can grow up to 50 feet high and live up to 200 years.
Phoenix is home to South Mountain Park and Preserve, the largest municipal park in North America.
Long before Phoenix was developed, the indigenous Hohokam people designed, built and maintained a sophisticated system of canals for irrigation; many remnants of Hohokam civilization have been preserved and can be seen at the S’edav Va’aki Museum.
Arizona Governor George Hunt and six of his family members are entombed in a pyramid-shaped mausoleum at Papago Park.

Prepare Your Vehicle for Auto Transportation from Phoenix, AZ
Considering the number of years we’ve been serving auto transport customers here at SGT, we’ve been able to see what works well and what doesn’t when it comes to shipping a car. Here are some pretty useful tips:
It’s important that you get a good documentation of the vehicle’s condition before the trip; we recommend a thorough cleaning of the interior and a wash job for the exterior. At the time of pickup, the driver will ask you to fill out a condition report (taking pictures for your own benefit is a good idea too), and it’ll be easier to do this with a clean vehicle.
If your vehicle has any personal belongings in it, this is the time to remove them.
Antennas, bike racks, cargo boxes and any other removable accessories should be detached and stowed.
Curb weight is a factor in shipping costs; make sure your vehicle has a quarter tank of fuel or less at the time of pickup, which will help keep weight down and reduce safety risks.
Fluid leaks such as motor oil, transmission fluid, power steering fluid or brake fluid can be a safety hazard and environmental risk. Please inspect your car for fluid leaks before pickup.
You don’t want to run up any accidental charges on the way, so remove any toll tags or parking tags.
Make sure your tires are all fully inflated and the battery is carrying a full charge.
How to Save on Car Shipping in Phoenix, AZ
There are a few ways that you can keep your car shipping costs tightly managed and shave off a few dollars here and there without compromising on the premium service you need. As you plan your auto transport needs, bear in mind that the more advance notice you can give, the more favorable rates will be. Last-minute booking comes at a premium, and we’d advise at least a couple of weeks of lead time to avoid that spike in shipping costs.
As mentioned above, there are a few times of the year when there are surges in booking for auto transport; if you can avoid these calendar periods and schedule your auto transport for an off-peak time, that can help cut costs as well. Major highways that serve bigger cities provide a direct and streamlined route for drivers; if possible, try to arrange your vehicle delivery for the nearest city. Travel to a suburb, a remote area or a small town can mean more road time (sometimes on 2-lane state or county roads) and additional charges. Don’t forget that SGT Auto Transport runs specials on a regular basis, and we encourage you to avail yourself of them; check our website regularly to see if any deals are in effect.
Receiving Your Vehicle in Phoenix
So it’s time to meet with the driver at the destination, and take possession of your vehicle again. Here are some tips to make that process go a little smoother and headache-free:
At the time of dropoff, the driver will ask you to do an inspection so that you can both be sure that the vehicle’s condition matches what’s on the driver’s Bill of Lading. If possible, we’d prefer that you be there in person when it’s time to give your car a going-over. If you can’t make it, you can pass this task on to a friend, spouse, relative or neighbor (please just be sure that SGT Auto Transport is apprised of your plans).
If you arranged for discounted price payment at the time you booked the auto shipping job, this is when you may be asked to pay the balance of what’s owed. You can pay the driver at this time, with cashier’s check or money order.
