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.
We had to send the car back to the dealership in Georgia and Sequoia did a really great job for us. Highly recommended!!!
Professional service and reasonable price considering they had to winch my car on the trailer.

Mesa is one of the Valley’s winter-visitor towns. Its 55+ RV and park-model resorts fill with seasonal residents in the autumn and empty again in spring, and the cars that go home with them head almost anywhere, from Dallas, about 1,070 miles east, to New York, close to 2,400.
A car wintering in Mesa keeps its home plates until its owner’s time in Arizona reaches seven months in a calendar year.
Arizona adds the months up within each calendar year, not season by season. A winter from November to March puts two months into one year and three into the next, so it never comes close. A winter that runs the whole of October through April is different, because from the second year on, January to April and October to December fall in the same calendar year. That is seven, and the home plates have to come off.
Time isn’t the only thing that counts. Taking a job here makes you a resident at once, apart from seasonal farm work and some short seasonal jobs, and so does putting a child in a public school without paying nonresident tuition. From that point the car needs Arizona registration, and ADOT allows no grace period for it.
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.

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.
You can leave up to 100 pounds of personal items in one piece of luggage, placed in the trunk or cargo area. Some carriers will accept additional weight for an added fee; we can arrange this for you after booking.
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.
Open transport is the standard choice for most vehicles. Enclosed transport costs 40 to 70% more and is appropriate for high-value vehicles, classics, low-clearance sports cars, and any car where weather exposure or road debris is a real concern.
Every shipment is insured by the carrier under federal cargo liability requirements.
