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!!!
Really nice company, the whole process was fast and easy peasy.

From November 1, 2026, San Antonio joins the Texas cities that test emissions, which changes what a car moving here needs before it can get Texas plates, though only on one side of the county line. A car leaving town is untouched by it, and because San Antonio sits where I-10 meets I-35, one heading for California, Florida or the Midwest is on its interstate soon after it’s loaded.
Anywhere in Bexar County, once November 1, 2026 arrives. From that date a car registered in Bexar can’t renew its registration without a passing test, and since Texas asks a new resident to pass it before registering, a car arriving from another state needs one before its Texas plates, inside the 30 days Texas gives you after you move. Gasoline cars between two and 24 years old are tested, while electric cars, diesels and motorcycles are not. None of the counties around Bexar is in the program, so an address in New Braunfels, Seguin or Boerne has no test at all, which is why it’s worth checking which county your new address sits in before you plan the weeks after delivery.
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.

A car shipped from San Antonio usually costs between $850 and $2,100 on an open carrier, about $0.70 to $1.00 a mile. Atlanta, the nearest of the long runs, is $850 to $1,050, Los Angeles $1,050 to $1,300 and Seattle, the farthest, $1,750 to $2,100.
A car leaving San Antonio is usually delivered in 3 to 7 days. Expect 3 to 4 days to Atlanta, 3 to 5 to Chicago or Los Angeles, 4 to 6 to New York and 4 to 7 to Boston or Seattle. Treat these as estimates, since a carrier on a long run stops for other cars along the way.
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 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.
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.
Every shipment is insured by the carrier under federal cargo liability requirements.
Yes. Every toll, bridge and congestion charge the truck pays on the way is already in your quote, and nothing is added for them after you book.
