OPEN car shipping

Open transport moves plenty of vehicles to and from Scottsdale, due in large part to its convenience and cost advantage. Your car will be loaded onto a multi-vehicle hauler, which offers greater availability and efficiency. When your vehicle arrives, you may see some dust or water spots that accumulate over the journey. These are only surface-level and can be washed away easily.

ENCLOSED car shipping

Scottsdale residents often request enclosed transport for their high-value vehicles when shipping to or from the area. When you’re transporting a luxury SUV, pristine vintage automobile, or other vehicles in this category, you don’t want to leave its safety and protection to chance. Enclosed shipping shields cars from dust, rain, and the harsh sun of the Arizona desert.

4 things to consider when transporting a car to or from Scottsdale

  • If you’re moving to Arizona, you’ll need to apply for a state license. Find a nearby MVD to obtain your new license—don’t forget to bring two proofs of residency.
  • Arizona heat punishes vehicles mercilessly. Scottsdale regularly hits 115°F in summer, and that temperature can destroy car interiors. Luxury leather seats crack, dashboards warp, paint fades. Park in the shade when possible and invest in a quality windshield sunshade.
  • Scottsdale gated communities have strict protocols. If you’re shipping in or out of one of these neighborhoods, contact your HOA or property management to provide advance notice and ensure the carrier will be able to gain entry.
  • Golf carts are legitimate transportation in some Scottsdale communities, particularly around golf course neighborhoods and age-restricted developments. Arizona law allows golf carts on roads with speed limits of 35 mph or less. If you’re shipping a golf cart to Scottsdale, it needs proper registration and insurance just like any vehicle.

Yes, your vehicle will be covered by the carrier’s cargo insurance. Additionally, Montway has its own contingent cargo insurance which protects you for up to $250,000 should the trucker's policy fail to fully cover a valid claim.

A simple way to save money is by opting for open auto transport rather than enclosed. You can also save money by keeping your pickup date flexible, meeting your truck driver near a main route and avoiding seasonal demand. Discover more car shipping tips to help keep money in your pocket.

With Montway you can have one piece of luggage in the trunk free of charge. This could be a box, suitcase, or bag, weighing no more than 100 lbs.

You should book your car transport as soon as you know pick up and delivery dates and locations. The further in advance you can schedule shipping, the more likely your vehicle will be delivered within your desired timeframe. We suggest booking between two and three weeks prior to the pick up date. Expedited pickup options are also available at an additional cost.

Yes, a person must be present at both pick up and delivery to sign inspection reports, hand the keys over to the driver and release and accept the vehicle. If you are unable to be there, you must find a person over the age of 18 that you trust to oversee the process.
