Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from San Francisco, California to Phoenix, Arizona

Shipping a car from California to Arizona typically costs $500 to over $1,000, with most falling in the $800-$1000 range, depending on if you choose cheaper open transport ($500-$800) or pricier enclosed transport, your specific locations (e.g., Phoenix to LA is cheaper than Tucson to San Francisco), fuel costs, vehicle size, and booking time. Expect delivery in 1 to 6 days, as it's a relatively short, common route.

Budget: The shorter the distance, the more cost-effective it is to drive instead of ship your car. Regardless of the total distance, look at your total moving budget and how much you can afford to spend on car shipping services compared to a cross-country drive.

If you need to ship your car to the other side of the country – train shipping will be more economical. If you need fast delivery right to your place – shipping by truck will be your best option.
