Your price holds for 28 days. Cancel free until 7 days before pickup.
Most shipments run door to door. If access is tight (narrow streets, low clearance), we will arrange a nearby meeting point.
One percent of every booking funds Clean Air Task Force, a nonprofit working on transport and energy emissions.
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.

Which paperwork Ohio wants depends on which way the car is going. One arriving to stay is inspected here before it can be titled, so the registration steps wait for the delivery. One leaving a dealer’s lot in Columbus or Cleveland for a buyer in another state has its Ohio sales tax settled before the truck comes, and for most of those buyers there is no Ohio tax to pay.
An Ohio dealer charges an out-of-state buyer sales tax only for Arizona, California, Florida, Indiana, Massachusetts, Michigan or South Carolina.
For those seven, the dealer collects whichever is lower, Ohio’s tax or the tax your own state would charge on the same car. Anywhere else there’s no Ohio sales tax at all, and whatever your own state charges is settled there, usually when you register the car.
Either way you sign form STEC-NR, a statement that the car is leaving Ohio straight away, so a truck collecting it from the dealer’s lot fits the form exactly. Since April 6, 2023 the statement no longer needs a notary, and the dealer files it with the county Clerk of Courts along with the title application.
If the move makes you a Ohio resident, these are the state's rules for the car.

Open transport to or from Ohio runs $850 to $2,250. New York and Virginia, the short runs east, come to $850 to $1,450 and Florida to $950 to $1,550. Texas spans $1,000 to $2,250 across its four big metros, and California, the longest run at more than 2,200 miles, is $1,500 to $2,200.
Most Ohio shipments take 2 to 7 days from pickup to delivery. New York and Virginia are 2 to 4 day runs, Texas and Florida take 3 to 5, Arizona 4 to 6, and California 4 to 7.
Ohio gives a new resident 30 days to register their car, and residency starts the day you take a job, sign a lease, buy a home or enroll a child in school. The out-of-state title has to become an Ohio title first, and that needs an inspection of the car itself at a deputy registrar or a new car dealer. So the car has to be in Ohio before the paperwork can finish, which makes its delivery date part of the 30 days.
You can cancel for free up to 7 days before pickup. After that, the deposit is non-refundable.
To ship a car, request a quote with your origin, destination, and vehicle details. Sequoia matches you with a driver according to your pickup window, the driver picks up your vehicle, and delivers it at your destination.
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.
If you find damage at delivery, note it on the bill of lading before signing. We will manage the claim with the carrier from there.
Every shipment is insured by the carrier under federal cargo liability requirements.
