The Miami to Los Angeles route

Westbound carriers usually take I-95 or I-75 north out of South Florida and connect to I-10 west through the Gulf states, Texas and Arizona into Los Angeles.

When to book

Spring is when snowbirds head north out of Florida. From March through May, trucks leaving South Florida are in high demand, so it's worth booking ahead.

During hurricane season (June through November), a storm near Miami can occasionally shift a pickup date. We'll keep you posted.
