I am moving from Iowa to Arizona. I have two dogs and lots of plants. i am planning to do the move myself and drive a U-Haul truck. How do I transport all them to Arizona, being that far away? Can I put them in the back of the truck. I might be towing my Honda if that would be possible, but I’m not sure yet.

Answer:

Well, DO NOT put any pets at the back of the truck. It gets extremely hot or cold in there, depends on the weather. You could seriously injure or kill your pets that way. Use a Pet Mover or transport them safely in comfortable cat carriers in the cab or in a well ventilated car.

Also, some of the Western states, being of agricultural nature, have special requirements for transporting plants, including house plants. For additional information use this Link to the Arizona Department of Agriculture.
