Car Transport Perth to Melbourne

Reliable, fully insured vehicle transport Perth to Melbourne — from $990, 10–18 business day transit over roughly 3,420 km. Door-to-door or depot-to-depot.

Perth to Melbourne heads east out of our Maddington depot, across the Nullarbor via Norseman and Ceduna, then down through South Australia and the Western Highway into Melbourne's north — about 3,420 km door to door. From $990, it's the most economical route off the west coast.
