The Los Angeles to Miami route

Most carriers run east on I-10 across the southern states into Florida, then down I-75 or I-95 to South Florida. This route sees less winter weather than the northern interstates, which keeps 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 South Florida, carriers may pause for safety and we'll keep you updated.
