Brisbane to Perth by road is an epic 4,300–4,600 km haul, about 45–50 hours of wheel time if you treat sleep as an optional extra (don’t).
The common route runs via NSW and SA, then across the Nullarbor on the Eyre Highway, featuring the 146.6 km “90 Mile Straight” — great for playlists, not your right foot.
Plan roadhouse fuel stops, carry plenty of water, and avoid dusk/dawn unless you fancy meeting a roo the expensive way.
Allow 5–7 days, check tyres and a full-size spare, and remember SA/WA quarantine rules for fruit and veg at the border.
Summer heat bites and winter winds howl, so book ahead in peak periods and keep an eye on road alerts before you set off.
