DRIVING ACROSS NULLABOR NEED SOME HELP

Hi leaving from South east SA travelling on the eyre highway then the Great eastern highway to perth. Just wanted to know if theyre any beds along that stretch thanks Steve. I didnt make myself clear

Hi Vivid travelling the eyre highway Ceduna sounds good . Is there anywhere to sleep between there and Noresman, I,l give Kalgoorlie a miss.
Also if anyone is interested in sharing the ride with me let me know thanks

Hiya Gappy. Eucla is a good bed...book ahead. Also Coolgardie has a decent motel and is about a day from Perth if you travel slowly and carefully.
Plenty of traffic on that road, many vans and trucks. Be wary of the wildlife if you travel around dawn and dusk (you already know this). You wouldn't be the only single female on that road but it's just as well to consider personal security in any case...as per usual.
It's a long drive for most of us so take it easy and get there in 1 piece. If you can, stop and take a peek at the attractions along the way.
Have fun and stay safe :))

PS. You have to be careful posting about going through the "centre", as it means a few different things to those of us who travel through Uluru to Perth, or across through to the Canning Stock Route etc.
But the moment you said "car" I figured that you were doing the Eyre Highway, and not the GCR or the Great Desert Highway :)))

Thankyou footy. How many hours would a insane person drive in one day. Would it be hot in November I have that much to do and no time to do it ha ha...
Im a little worried about doing this on my own. What do you do if you breakdown any rescourse available I should know of Cheers

Going through the centre what does it mean !!!!!

Nov can be hot but it will be much hotter in January there. So you should be right, it shouldn't be furnace-like in Nov.
It all depends how fast you drive I guess. I'm a slower driver and I've driven for 8 to 9 hours a day. But it all depends where I'm headed for.
If I were younger I'd drive for longer, but these days I'd rather take it easy and try and enjoy the drive.
Going through the Centre means driving around through the Alice Springs area to the WA coast, centre meaning the (very roughly) centre of Australia.
Fill up at Ceduna and Eucla/ Mundrabilla and again at Norseman. Fuel anywhere else is usually more expensive. If you run into mech trouble then your state motoring organization is a great thing to belong to...get into an extended scheme. Costs more but will pay for itself if you get into strife.
A UHF radio can be handy to chat to the trucks and vans and if you need a hand in an emergency. Some police (SA and WA) use the UHF in their patrol cars.

Footy's on the mark. Another thing, make sure your vehicle is properly serviced and that your tyres, aircon and cooling system are in good condition.

Nearer to the date you should be able to find a travelling companion or convoy companion of some sort however. Try asking on here a few weeks before.

Cheers
Andrew.

Hi Doug. Yes, that roadhouse accommodation as you know better than I, can vary from comfortable through to somewhere you wouldn't put your dog overnight.
Some are no place for a single female I rekkon.
How's the Creek?

Footloose
Roadhouses would be better than for a young Lady than sleeping in the car , but one could in a car bypass all them in a day, and my suggestion would Ceduna, Border Village, Norseman , from there to Perth a piece of P*ss.

The Creek.....Hmmmm bloody cold at night,windy and dusty, gusting to 44Kph SE , pity the poor buggers heading South or East with Caravans..fuel.$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Doug, yes you're right. They probably aren't too bad along there...now in the Pilbera, that's another story !
Yep, those van owners can't all be retired millionaires. And if they were when they left home, they sure aren't by the time they get back!
Keep that wind in the Centre, mate, don't want it here.

Thanks dunc, I should be ok, just a luittle anxious about going alone and breakdowns. I will map it out before I go and leave Ceduna very early, nothing worse than driving into the sun. Thanks for reply

Hi Daveo That very useful info as Im female that is good to know. Certainly make you nervous on your own. I might stay at eula then noresman probally be a better choice for me Thanku

Hi Triton, I wont be sleeping in car as it will be loaded with my personal things as Ive come from Tassie, but currently In SA. So id have to sleep in my seat and dont sleep well. thanks for email

Hi Tim thanks for that. I would only go around 100km so I wont be in a hurry . Thinking about 700 km a day at this time is that a lot on that road.thanku

700ks a day should be fine, if you are use to driving 900ks should be possible.
I note you are from Tassie, down their it takes all day to do a few hundred ks because of the windey roads, so you will cover a lot more ks out their.
Goodluck Pete
