What is Darwin to Melbourne 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.

I had a great experience with Sharon from Moval. Although we didn't 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.
Shaz was extremely friendly and helpful in finding me the right removalist. Highly recommended

Fantastic Service provided by Muval, and in turn their choice of removalist - Magic Monster Removals. Everything was clearly explained, followed up, moved without issue, and competitively priced. Shaz did a great job. Thank You!
Mitchell at Muval provided a smooth and easy process, which made the stress of moving a little easier. Thank you.

Sharon responded in a professional and timely manner, she was thoughtful and kind and more than proficient in securing a booking for the next day within the hour. The price was better than any other offer on the market. Thank you to Sharon ...
Mitchell was great to work with. He made the process of booking and working with the removalists really easy. The quality of the movers was great.
Mitchell helped me when my removalist was a no show at the last minute. He was very helpful and understanding.
Shaz from Muval went above the average customer service to assist me to arrange my interstate move as well as to reassure me closer to the moving date. Informative professional and a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommend.

Awesome service from Jamahl, from my initial contact with muval he was polite, conscientious, professional, responsive and always helpful. He is a credit to the organisation. Thanks for your help mate.
Quote process was very simple. Quote gave good level of detail of the service being offered, parking requirements for truck, ETA at destination etc. and was very competitive. Definitely my first port of call next time we move.
Our pick up and delivery from Perth to Adelaide went well without any issues. They were very prompt and communication was great!
Muval helped me remember everything that need doing with the move and helped me organize everything. They were very professional and helped take the stress out of moving.

Yes, all of our prices are GST inclusive.
Generally, it is around four porta-robes or 6 standard cartons for a wardrobe.
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.
When looking at your kitchen, the industry standard is one book carton to each cupboard door.
No one expects that you keep the original box that your TV came in when you bought it. Most removalists can provide special TV moving cardboard boxes that can help to keep your TV safe and secure while being transported (make sure you enquire about this before your move day. Otherwise, you can protect your television by wrapping it in blankets and then wrapping that tightly in cling film. Finally, as a peace of mind measure, we recommend purchasing one of our affordable moving insurance policies to protect your most valuable possessions like your TV in case of an accident.
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.
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.
If you need to change the delivery or pick up date, please advise the removalist as early as possible. They can sometimes accommodate changes and reschedule but this has a few variables.
