About This Route

Minneapolis to Phoenix is a classic snowbird route. Retirees and seasonal residents ship south in the fall, generally October through December, then often ship the same vehicle back north in spring, generally March through May, once the weather turns.

Carriers on this route generally run I-35, I-40, I-17. Because it is such a well-established seasonal corridor, carrier availability is strong during the actual snowbird windows, though booking a couple of weeks ahead still helps secure your preferred pickup date.

This is a snowbird route: demand runs heaviest southbound in the fall, generally October through December, as seasonal residents head to Arizona for winter, and northbound in the spring, generally March through May, as they return home. Booking a couple of weeks ahead during those windows helps secure pricing and pickup timing.

SUVs, trucks and vans typically run toward the higher end of these ranges, since they take up more space on the carrier. Luxury and exotic vehicles are recommended for enclosed transport.
