Car Shipping from California to Florida
California to Florida is a cross-country trip of roughly 2,700 miles from Los Angeles to Miami. Whether you're relocating, sending a car to a seasonal home or buying from an out-of-state seller, we match your vehicle with a vetted open carrier already running the southern route.
The California to Florida route
Most carriers on this lane run the southern route along I-10 through Arizona, Texas and the Gulf states. It sees less winter weather than the northern interstates, which helps keep schedules steady in colder months.
When to book
Fall is snowbird season. From October through December, a lot of traffic heads into Florida, and trucks on Florida-bound lanes fill quickly, so booking early pays off.
Hurricane season runs June through November. Storms rarely affect a shipment, but if one threatens your delivery area, carriers may pause for safety and we'll keep you updated.
