Ohio is not really all that flat. Ohio has a very similar topography to that of Indiana. Much of Southern and especially south-eastern area of Ohio is very hilly, as is the area around Cincinnati. If you think Ohio is flat, just take a look at pictures of the Cincinnati area and especial areas of around Hocking Hills. I would say the entire lower 1/3 of Ohio is very hilly, with major topographical changes. Maybe 1/8 of the eastern portion of Ohio is somewhat hilly as well. Much of Northern Ohio and Western Ohio, as well as central Ohio (Columbus area) is very flat - much like the Northern/Central Indiana region.
However, its not fair to say that Ohio is flat. Only parts of it are.
It has to do with tectonic activity as well as the lack of anchient batholiths, latholiths or other dried up magma contents being pushed up to form mountains.
It depends where in Ohio you are talking about. The area around Lake Erie is mostly flat. The Eastern regions of Ohio are technically parts of Applachia and mountainous. The Central portion is mostly flat plains, Western Ohio has varying terrain.

Ohio is not arid enough to have a desert. Ohio has lush farmlands on mostly flat terrain and some rolling hills.
3-5 days about
both, in the northern parts of Ohio there are flat plains, but in the southern parts there rolling hills and in some places even full blown mountains.
I can tell you that it took a shoebox sized package 2 weeks to ship from Chicago, IL to Long Beach, CA when it was sent by standard flat rate shipping, so I would assume about the same maybe a little longer since Ohio is farther east. maybe a day or two more.
Ohio has no deserts.
