Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Chattanooga, Tennessee to Phoenix, Arizona

Expect to pay somewhere between $1,167 and $1,588 to ship your car cross-country from Tennessee to Arizona. Timing, transport style, and mileage all factor in. Explore the details in our shipping cost guide. To get the best price, try to book in advance and compare multiple quotes.

Driving is usually cheaper for shorter distances, but for long cross-country moves, the cost difference shrinks, and shipping often becomes more cost-effective when factoring in gas, food, lodging, wear-and-tear, and time, making it worth paying a carrier to avoid the hassle and expense of a long solo trip, though driving saves on carrier fees but adds travel time and costs.

The cheapest way to ship a car to another state is usually open transport on a multi-car carrier, combined with terminal-to-terminal service, booking during off-peak seasons, and comparing quotes from multiple companies like Montway or uShip to get the best rate. Driving it yourself is cheapest if feasible, but open transport is the most affordable external service.
