What is Canberra 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.

Using Muval saved me so much time and effort. Marc was extremely helpful narrowing down options to 3 and ensuring we could meet the deadlines and complexities for our move. Highly recommend and would use again.
Sharon was extremely helpful and friendly. She was quick with getting back to us and really took our needs into consideration. Although we didn’t end up using a removalist in the end, Sharon was wonderful and I would highly recommend usin...
i could not speak more highly of Sharon. she went above and beyond, i couldn’t have asked for anything else.
I would highly recommend Angelo he was so helpful and informative he made it so streamlined and easy. No effort from me and all the efforts made by him.
Sometimes things can go wrong during a move. There are many moving cogs, that all need to work together. After a difficult move, I spoke to the customer service team at Muval and they were very understanding of our situation. They retuned a...
Vince was really nice and dilligent on scheduling my moving and offering me the best option based on price and timin. Excellent service.
Very good service & I made a mistake of not choosing their bond cleaning service, Thanks for arranging a good truck for our move. I would recommend your service to anyone. Thanks again, Anne.
Kelvin made securing a removalist for our interstate relocation a pain free and seamless process. Less than 1 hour between submitting an online enquiry to receiving a call from Kelvin, and then we were booked. 10/10 service from Kelvin!
As a newbie to relocating, I really appreciated Caroline's expertise and support: she provided a range of options so that I was able to select a removalist company that met my needs (much easier than me calling individual companies directly...

Unfortunately we have had numerous moves over the last 2 years, and always come back to Shaz, she is efficient, professional, kind, polite and just a great egg! Thank you Shaz!
I cannot recommend Muval more highly. If you are time-poor, and don’t have the head space to figure out the most cost effective option / other logistics, this is the service for you. Mel did all the legwork for me. Very warm, professional...
Excellent service. I would use again. A+ Helpful and informative from initial engagement through to moving day.
Lauren at Muval went above and beyond to help with securing a good deal for our interstate move. She was thorough with her researching for a great rate, kind and followed up a number of times just to ensure we got a good deal. Thanks Lauren...
Muval (and Bree’s great communication) made it very easy to find and compare movers, and then book a mover for my require date. Would recommend using their service :)

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.
Yes. This varies depends on which company you are using. Usually, the minimum charge is based on the cost of transporting 5 cubic metres.
This can be organised but will incur an extra charge.
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.
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.
The best way to ensure a successful move day is to be prepared. One way to do this is to notify your removalist about any very heavy or awkward-to-move items before move day. It can never hurt to double-check with them that they understand that you have these items, even if you have also submitted an inventory list. These sorts of items include:
- Grand / Baby grand piano
- Pizza oven
- Concrete furniture
- Pool / snooker tables (particularly slate)
- Many pot plants / large pot plants
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.
It is preferred if you or your representative to be present at the pickup and drop off.
