What is Cairns to Brisbane backloading?
Backloading is when you book the remaining truck space on a truck that’s already booked by someone else. It often means you may have to be slightly flexible on your pickup and delivery dates & times, but in turn it usually means big cost savings relative to booking a "primary load".
Booking backloads is a common practice among interstate removalists, who are often willing to give cheap or discounted prices for the available space in a truck that is going from point A to point B, or on the return journey if they have been unable to find a customer needing to move in the opposite direction.

Fantastic service, always go above and beyond and more than happy to answer questions. I’ll never use another company as I know 100% I get the best price and best service with Muval. I highly recommend for anybody looking at moving interstate to contact these guys, I’ve used them twice.

Mel from Muval has been amazing! I had a bad experience with one of their vendors (at 5pm on a Friday) and she arranged a move for the following morning and went out of her way to ensure my experience was turned around. Mel continued to con...
I had a great experience with Sharon from Moval. Although we didnt end up booking through them for an unrelated reason, she worked really to get us an affordable and accurate quote with a very well reviewed removalist.
Tanya was great and so helpful!!! Put me at ease for the move :)
Helpful and friendly customer service, many thanks for the recommendation!!
Great service for organising suitable removalists. I spoke with Mitchell, who was very friendly, professional and helpful.
Excellent service by Ken. He keeps us informed with progress and when we needed a second move he responded quickly.
I would prefer to give her ten stars, but unfortunately there are only five here. She is the best, I will never forget this experience. All the best
I had an excellent experience moving with Muval. The movers were quick, efficient, and friendly. Also, Rosie who helped me over the phone and by texts was very helpful, friendly, and professional. Overall everything was great.
I have received great remote assistance from Grace to help me book the truck for my moving arrangements. Grace has been very polite, helpful and efficient. She has made this process so much easier. I will have my moving date at the end of t...
Alvin has been super helpful, always does his best to answer my questions and find the right solutions.
Their customer service is very good. I recommend them to someone looking for removalist service. Kelvin was very helpful, happy to answer any questions I may have, and provided me with the best options.
Ken was fantastic. Planning a move was starting to cause stress and anxiety not knowing where to start organising it. Ken made the entire process simple and easy to organise allowing me to focus on the other items needing my attention befor...
I would happily use Muval again. Grant was extremely helpful, even with my hundreds of changes and questions. He was polite and accomodating throughout the experience. The removalists they selected for our requirements were great also. In b...
Thorough and very helpful support team when booking!
Easy and quick process very responsive to specific needs.
Spoke to Carleigh today and she was the most helpful customer service person Ive ever dealt with IN MY LIFE. Definitely needs a promotion IMMEDIATELY. Carleigh if you see this I love you.
JM provides great customer service. Really looks after you, especially if you are a return customer. If I need to move in the future, I will be going with Muval.
LJ (Muval) was very helpful! She was very consistent in following up and giving options for our move. Excellent service!
The move was quite a bit cheaper than I thought, thanks to the speedy movers who handled the furniture with care. Also big kudos to Leroy for arranging the move so quickly and liaising with the movers!
Sharon was the absolute best helping us find a trunk on a time crunch. She went through everything and answered all our questions even staying back before the long weekend. Can't thank her enough!
Had great support identifying a variety of companies and quotes to best suit my move

If you have the original TV box, please use it. You can also purchase TV storage/removal boxes from storage centres. If you don’t have a box and can’t source one, the removalist will use heavy-duty blankets to protect the TV.
The cost for your local move will depend on how long your move takes. Some dishonest moving companies quote very cheap hourly or half-hourly rates to get your job, and then work slowly on the day or surprise you with additional charges in order to make more money.
Unless they are running a limited special offer, most honest removal companies need to charge at least $45 per half hour or more in order to pay their staff (two people usually come to load and unload the truck for you), pay their insurances, and make sure their trucks are serviced regularly.
If you cancel within 48 hours of your booking (if your move is more than 5 days away) or give three weeks’ notice before your pick up date, you will get a full refund of your deposit.
Reading reviews is a great way to determine if a removalist is the right one for you. Platforms like Google, Product Review or Muval are great for this because they have built-in mechanisms to ensure reviews are from genuine people that have actually interacted with that business.
However, we advise to be cautions of moving companies with hundres of reviews and a perfect 5 star rating on these platforms as reviews unfortunately can be faked. Don't get us wrong: honest companies with a perfect 5 star rating do exist and they are excellent (we have a few on our platform!). But, given the nature of furniture removalist work, something, at some point, is bound to go wrong. Maybe the truck breaks down and is late for a job. Maybe someone accidentally trips and some items in a box are damaged. Whatever it is, accidents unfortunately do happen and these sorts of occassions rarely attract a 5 star rating.
Because of this, companies with a 4.5 or above rating are often just as good as a company with a perfect 5. So, we suggest, instead of looking for all 5-star reviews, take a look at a companies worst reviews and pay special attention to how they responded to the issue. Were they sympathetic? Did they respond promptly? Did they offer a resolution? Were they contactable for the customer to voice their concerns? These are the sorts of things that separate the best removalists from those who don't deliver a high level of service.

No, The moving company you book will load and unload the truck with a minimum of two professional removalists.
It is preferred if you or your representative to be present at the pickup and drop off.
It is preferable to consider taking out an all-risk policy for your move. We offer two different options of coverage for your move, which include lowering the excess to obtain a lower premium or the ability to cover specific items of your move: https://www.muval.com.au/cover
If you change your list of items or space required to an increased amount, the removalist will adjust the price accordingly. It is advisable to inform Muval as soon as you know that your moving volume has increased. This way, we can plan to avoid any items being left behind on the move day. Please contact Muval about two days before your move once you have finished packing; this way, we can give the correct information to the removalist company before the day.
