Shipping to Cheyenne: $1,025–$1,350
Cheyenne's open-transport table shows vehicle class affects quotes: SUVs and crossovers tend to price a little below sedans, while pickups tend to cost more. No enclosed-transport typical quote is shown, so the table helps compare open shipping only.

Transit is SAKAEM's standard estimate by distance, counted from pickup.
Cheyenne's recorded inbound cars came most often from California and Florida (12 each), then Virginia (11), New York (8), Maryland (7), and North Carolina (6). Together, these six states account for roughly half of inbound shipments on record, so timing depends on the origin lane and season; winter weather can slow the trip into Wyoming.

Fast and reliable service. Highly recommended. Will use again in the future. Fair pricing.
Communication was good. No surprise charges. I was not there for the pick up or the delivery, but everything went as planned. First time using a service like this and it was pretty painless. I recommend these guys do to how smooth everything went.
Easily done and with no headache! Pickup was well done and delivery was right on time. Highly recommended.Thank you’ George in New Orleans
Distance, route demand, and carrier schedules shape the quote. In Cheyenne's recorded departures, Wyoming in-state moves were rare (1 of 105), so a short trip may not line up with a truck's route as readily as a major interstate lane.
Winter snow, ice, and strong winds can close I-80 and other Wyoming highways for hours or days. Cheyenne deliveries from about October to April can be delayed, affecting carrier availability and route cost.
Larger or heavier vehicles take more trailer space and can change loading plans. Cheyenne's open quotes show pickups usually cost more than sedans, while SUVs and crossovers can price slightly lower; dimensions matter, not just the model name.
Carrier trucks need safe room to maneuver and load. A tight street, gated community, or limited turning space around a Cheyenne address can require a nearby meeting point or extra handling, which may affect the quote.
Open transport is the standard value choice; enclosed service adds shelter from road debris and weather and usually costs more. For a high-value car in Cheyenne's snow, ice, and wind season, that added protection may be worth the higher rate.

For a flexible handoff, offer a roomy, legal meeting spot near your route to I-25 or I-80 rather than insisting on a hard-to-reach street address.
If pickup is on a narrow street in South Cheyenne or Saddle Ridge, choose a nearby open, legal meeting point before dispatch.
For a winter move, leave room for I-80 closure delays from October to April; avoid tying arrival to a fixed handoff if you can.
Give the exact vehicle type and running condition before booking so the quote reflects your sedan, SUV, or pickup and the right loading plan.
Take clear photos of each side and note existing damage at the Cheyenne handoff; keep the condition record to compare at delivery.

A move to Cheyenne brings Wyoming registration tasks along with the car. Use this checklist to handle the title and inspection steps after arrival.
Register after becoming a Wyoming resident; the law sets no exact day count, so plan to register soon after moving in. [W.S. 31-2-201]
Get a law-enforcement VIN inspection on form MV-300A (about $10). Take your out-of-state title, inspection form, and proof of insurance to the county clerk; get plates from the county treasurer in your county seat. [WYDOT]
Carry at least 25/50/20 liability coverage: $25,000 for one person hurt, $50,000 for everyone hurt in one crash, and $20,000 for property damage. [W.S. 31-9-405]
Wyoming does not require emissions testing; an incoming car's only check is a one-time VIN inspection. [Uinta County, WY]
Wyoming has no regular safety inspection. A car from another state needs a one-time law-enforcement VIN inspection before it can be titled. [Uinta County, WY]
Front side, back side, and rear windows must let in at least 28% of light, and tint cannot be more than 20% reflective. Windshield tint is allowed only above the AS-1 line or within 5 inches of the top; windows behind the driver on trucks, SUVs, and similar vehicles are exempt. [W.S. 31-5-962]

New to auto transport? Here's how to ship a car, step by step.
For Cheyenne outbound shipments, typical open-transport quotes for running vehicles are $975–$1,250; inbound to Cheyenne, they are $1,025–$1,350. Those ranges reflect the middle half of customer quotes on record (94 outbound and 130 inbound), not a guaranteed quote. Your route, vehicle, pickup access, season, and transport type affect the final price.
Cheyenne-to-Los Angeles transit is estimated at 1–4 days on the road; Cheyenne-to-Washington, DC, at 2–6 days. These are typical driving-time estimates after pickup, not guarantees; they do not include the wait to secure a carrier. Winter closures on I-80 can add delays.
SAKAEM's carriers are FMCSA-licensed and insured. Carriers carry at least $1,000,000 in liability coverage and $100,000 in cargo insurance. Review the condition notes on the Bill of Lading at handoff, and ask how the carrier's coverage applies to your vehicle.
You may place up to 100 lbs of personal items in the trunk or below the window line. Keep items secured and within that limit; don't use the car as a substitute for household moving freight. Tell SAKAEM before pickup if you plan to leave anything inside so loading instructions are clear.
Yes. SAKAEM can arrange transport for a non-running car if it rolls, brakes, and steers, and a key is available. Share that information before booking so the carrier can plan for loading and access. A vehicle that cannot roll, brake, or steer falls outside those stated requirements.
You can pay by card, or pay the carrier by cash or certified check; Zelle and Venmo are also accepted. Confirm your payment method with SAKAEM and the assigned carrier before pickup so you know who is collecting payment and have the right method ready.
A designated adult must be present at both pickup and delivery. They inspect the vehicle with the carrier and sign the Bill of Lading at each handoff. If you cannot attend, arrange for another adult to meet the truck, walk around the car, and complete the paperwork.
