Detailed Drivers is Phoenix's premier child seat car service, providing rear-facing infant seats, convertible forward-facing seats, and booster seats for families across the Phoenix metro and Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX). Every child seat is included for a $25/seat add-on — compliant with Arizona ARS §28-907. Flat-rate transfers from PHX to downtown Phoenix start at $40 for a sedan, with no surge during Cardinals games at State Farm Stadium, Cactus League spring training, or the Waste Management Phoenix Open. As of 2026, Detailed Drivers serves 30+ cities across the United States.
Child seat car service in Phoenix costs $100/hr for a sedan with a $25 add-on per seat — flat-rate pricing that never surges during Diamondbacks games at Chase Field, Suns games at Footprint Center, or peak summer heat events. PHX airport transfers start from $120+ to downtown.
