Car shipping in Chandler, AZ

State lanes, not a Chandler census

According to Census ACS 2024, the largest estimate of people now in Arizona who lived in another state a year earlier is California, 52,383 (margin of error 6,890). Washington is 17,601 (margin of error 3,256) and Texas is 10,306 (margin of error 2,404). The largest outbound estimates are California, Texas, and Colorado. Those counts are statewide. They are not a Chandler headcount. California to Arizona is the main state lane a Chandler car shares.

Summer dust, and whose yard it is

ADOT says monsoon season runs from June through September, with dust storms, heavy rain, and possible highway closures. ADOT's advice is to stay out of a dust storm rather than drive into it. The IAA branch confirmed for this metro lists a Phoenix address, not a Chandler address. A Chandler purchase that releases at that yard is a Phoenix yard pickup. A car at a Chandler house is not. If the residential street will not take the trailer, set a meeting point. See meeting points.

A Tucson run uses the dust corridor

ADOT's variable-speed dust system is not in Chandler. It sits on I-10 between Eloy and Picacho, on the highway between Phoenix and Tucson, and can drop the limit to 35 mph. A Chandler car continuing to Tucson on I-10 can pass that stretch in monsoon season. A local delivery that never leaves the southeast valley does not. See the Phoenix auction area only when the car releases at the Phoenix yard.
