What is Darwin to 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.

The 2 men arrived on time and very polite. They listened to all the information and proceeded to pack the truck. They worked together well and were very methodical with the packing. It took 5 hours to pack the truck a very big job. They lef...
Helped sorting out one of the many difficult task with moving easy! Thanks a lot to the staff I worked with. She was very professional and got things organised with ease.
STRESS FREE, AT THIS STRESSFUL TIME MOVING TO ANOTHER STATE, MUVAL HELPED ME THROUGH THE WHOLE PROCESS AND HOOKED ME UP WITH THE CHEAPEST REMOVALIST THEY COULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND MUVAL FOR ALL YOUR MOVING NEEDS
I recently hired this company for 2 moves in just 5 weeks one interstate and the other local. As someone who has never undertaken a move like this on my own, I was initially apprehensive and very nervous. However, I can't express enough how...
Dion was wonderful, like making sure I understood every bit of the quote and wasn't pushy to lock in my booking. A delight to speak to. Thanks heaps!
Win has been super patient, empathetic and helpful to organise movers for me. I recommend her service and will reach out to her for future moves as well. Thank you, Win!
I had to move a single piece of furniture from Sydney to Brisbane. Too big for a courier, & too small to justify a full house removalist service. The folk at muval found a transporter; Alec was able to guide me through the process (includin...
Great service, connected us with a great removal company. Great customer service.
Angelo was such a great help on such short notice! He gave such efficient recommendations that my partner and I were very happy with, and were really looking forward to the move.
Rhea was extremely helpful, kind and patient with me asking lots of questions. She was personable and friendly also. I was relieved I was talking to the right person who could solve my issues. Thanks Rhea!
Anthony was very attentive and always politely followed up on emails. Highly recommended.
Prompt & efficient service always. Mack & team assisted as much as possible.
I was a bit hesitant about using this service, but after contacting a few different movers directly for quotes (yikes), and also seeing all the positive reviews, I gave it a shot. JM was great; very friendly and helpful. The actual movers t...
Tyson was very helpful and followed up with phone calls to check all was good. I would recommend Tyson in future

I'm moving from Canberra to Adelaide soon. I've got a disability which limits my mobility. Shaz at Muval has been enormously helpful. I'd recommend looking at Muval to help you get quotes and selecting the right movers for your individual c...
Excellent professional service and great communication. Many thanks
Bree from Muval was awesome, had multiple touch points with her arranging a last minute move within 24-48 hours. Without her help I wouldn't have been able to get it done. Cheers, Jack
