Can you pick up the car at the rental store in Melbourne if you cannot go during business hours when traveling by car in Australia? I'm afraid something might happen and I won't be able to pick up the car on time ?

It's best to confirm in advance, some stores may be willing to wait for you, of course, there will be additional charges
The store at the airport, generally don't have to worry too much~· In the city, it's best to go during business hours. Last year when I went to Australia, I also picked up the car in Melbourne. Because I was unfamiliar with the traffic in Melbourne, I arrived at the car return location at 5:30, and the staff said they had already finished work at 5 o'clock, asking us to come back tomorrow to return the car. So sad... However, the staff were very nice. When we returned the car, the gas was not enough, and the staff carefully told us to go to the nearest gas station to add some gas, so as not to be charged at a higher price, which would be much more expensive. In the end, only the overnight fee was charged. The process was still very pleasant.
