What is Canberra to Townsville 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.

Super helpful. Took the stress out of moving. Organised reliable movers, movers had great communication. Prices were upfront. No hidden costs.
— Paul Clarke
Since the first call, Muval has been really helpful for someone who has never moved before like me. The staff member Alec was very friendly and answering all my inquiries with patience, and helped me to find the best deal for my move.
Great communication and quick response, thanks, team!

very efficient service and simple process to make the moving side less stressful
Kristy was great, showing a clear understanding of my requirements. She was quick to follow up and provided a very good quality solution who made moving day a breeze.
There was no update from the removalists. Nyasha from Muval followed up with the removalists to make sure that, there is a response and the goods are delivered
Carina assisted us very well and the moment she called she gave a feeling that we can trust her and that our move will go smoothly
Very quick and professional service. Very helpful staff specially Grant.

Alana from Muval helped source quotes for an interstate move. She was efficient, polite and saved so much time compared to if I had tried myself. Would recommend to others.
Nyasha was friendly, efficient and very helpful. Considering the lovely interaction with this company, I would recommend Muval to everyone
Instead of getting a million phone calls from removalists all over the place, Muval contacted me directly via text (not automated). The lady I was talking with over text was so helpful and very friendly! I was so busy at work and had little...

If you change your list of items or space required a week before your move, we can usually adjust the price accordingly. In some circumstances this won’t be possible depending on the booking volume and amount of change and notice provided.
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.
This can be organised but will incur an extra charge.
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.
We encourage bookings ASAP, and this will hold the price, reserve the space, and give you peace of mind. This can also mean you avoid any future price rise.
The packing service is not included in our standard pricing. Please check with our support team to get a quotation.
The final payment must be paid five days before the nominated pickup date.
