Spring return

Northbound loads peak from March through May. In the fall the flow reverses, and it’s the trucks bound for Florida that fill up.

Route overview

After a short hop west to meet I-75, the truck heads north through Georgia past Macon and Atlanta, crosses to Nashville, then rides I-65 through Louisville and Indianapolis before rounding the bottom of Lake Michigan into Milwaukee.

This is the snowbird lane in its homebound direction. From March into May, cars that wintered in Florida head north, and trucks out of north Florida tend to fill earlier than they do the rest of the year. Booking a few weeks ahead in spring leaves more pickup dates open.

If you fly north before the car leaves, someone still has to be there at pickup: a neighbor, a property manager or a friend can hand over the keys and sign the condition report. The same goes at the Wisconsin end if you won’t be home yet.

FAQs

Florida to Wisconsin: is April the priciest month?
An April pickup, at the height of the spring return, usually costs more than the same trip in summer or early fall. After that it comes down to the vehicle and the trailer type.
Could late snow in Wisconsin hold up an April delivery?
Occasionally. A spring storm can slow the last day of the trip, but snow that late seldom sticks around long enough to hold a car for more than a day.
Can I send the car back to Florida in the fall?
Yes. Milwaukee to Jacksonville covers the southbound trip, which gets busy from October through December.
