Melbourne to Perth is 3,415km. Perth operates on AWST (UTC+8), which is 3 hours behind Melbourne AEDT (or 2 hours behind AEST). A parcel leaving Melbourne at 10am arrives in Perth in the early afternoon local time — not enough remaining business day for same-day metro delivery. Same-day is not available on this route.
