What is Cairns 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.

Jay is the best, he communicated well and helped me with a good rate. Really happy with the service.
We booked through Muval last minute and they quickly got us a quote. A positive experience.
Jamal at Muval was amazing with this help to assist us in organising our interstate move. Excellent communication, great customer service and very patient with us going back and forward. Highly recommend
I got a great support from Lauren. It all went smooth, including the volume assessment which turned out being very accurately estimated. Thank Lauren and Muval !
Carina is very insightful and helpful with the whole process and has made everything very smooth and easy going. She has helped expedite the whole process and has been an honest person that has accommodated to my needs for moving.
I came across Muval on google, initially I was hesitant with it being a third party company however they were able to provide quotes for 2 reputable moving companies for a move within short notice with competitive rates. I chose the company...

Julius was very helpful, super professional and very friendly in dealing with my move. Highly recommended.

Shout out to Jamal from Muval for providing excellent service. Really patient, professional and helpful in helping organise our move.
Easy from start to finish. Took a lot of the stress out of moving.
Carina is Very helpful especially for a first timer like us! We appreciate the assistance in finding the best removalist option and I hope they can do a good job on the day itself
Muval helped with my recent move to Paddington NSW. Liz helped in locking something in for us within a 3 day window after our other removal company fell through. Super GM transport helped with our move, they were also great help.
Wilson from Muval is a legend, he really eased the stress of moving for me - communication from start to finish was amazing (email, phone, direct SMS line with him) which I really appreciated. Wilson explained all of my options before booki...

The final payment must be paid five days before the nominated pickup date.
Preferably No, It is better to use a fitted sheet on each side of your mattresses to enclose.
Packing and unpacking boxes for your house is not usually included by default when you book a removalist. This is a service that needs to be booked separately (you can do this through Muval) or done yourself, and is best arranged for a day or two before your removalist is scheduled to do your uplift.
In our experience, people always dramatically under estimate the time it takes to pack their house, and it's usually one of the most burdensome tasks of moving! If you're packing yourself, make sure you start early and do a couple of boxes a day. Otherwise, save yourself the hassle and book packing services through Muval. Your future self will thank you.
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.

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.
Yes. This varies depends on which company you are using. Usually, the minimum charge is based on the cost of transporting 5 cubic metres.
A cubic metre is 1m x 1m x 1m. A full-sized container size is 38m3.
Truck sizes vary from 20m3 to 70m3 and sometimes 100m3.
Each company has differing policies about notification before the pickup and delivery. Some companies can provide a time window on booking, others provide this the day before, while others will provide notice within an hour of their arrival.
