What is Darwin 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.

Fantastic service, always go above and beyond and more than happy to answer questions. I’ll never use another company as I know 100% I get the best price and best service with Muval. I highly recommend for anybody looking at moving interstate to contact these guys, I’ve used them twice.

I cannot recommend Muval highly enough. I submitted the on-line form and ticked a couple of possible removalists and within a short space of time had Alec call me and offer to help. Well he certainly helped. He negotiated directly with the ...
I had to cancel my booking with LJ Muval Services and did not end up using their service, but I was still very impressed with their support. Their team was professional, responsive, and genuinely helpful throughout the entire process. Commu...
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.
The team at Muval were so amazing! I had a lot of different interactions with the team and each one had amazing customer experience. Moving is a stress and having the team really plan it all out really to the stress out for me. Plus they co...
Great job, Guys were on time, completely professional and made the experience easy and smooth. Highly recommended!!
Really efficient, professional and friendly movers.
I had a good experience with Muval. The only downside was that the form inventory was not easy to use. Sharon was communicative, friendly, and professional, and she got us a reasonable deal on our move.
Jay was an absolute delight to coordinate with, very helpful and attentive. The experience has been great and we found a good provider to do our interstate move. Thank you, Jay!
Super helpful. Took the stress out of moving. Organised reliable movers, movers had great communication. Prices were upfront. No hidden costs.
Good guidance from Muval, and the packers were professional
Thx to mitchell from muval for help with organising move booking, which went as planned.
Laura at Muval literally saved me, I was originally making the move from Melbourne to Brisbane with a different company that were complete cowboys that walked out on the job. I gave Muval a call and Laura got me a very professional team tha...
The booking staff was extremely helpful and accommodating.
Muval costumer service is great, quick and responsive.
I was completely satisfied with their customer service and professionalism. Carina was very friendly and always took time to answer my questions. Two thumbs up to Carina and Muval.
Muval were fantastic. We were moving interstate and understated the size of our move. Muval managed to organise a second truck on the same day to move us out. The boys in the truck were fantastic to work with and looked after our possession...
Jay has been helpful in arranging my booking. He is contactable and answered my questions clearly. I am looking forward to the move in a couple weeks. Thanks Jay

Generally, it is around four porta-robes or 6 standard cartons for a wardrobe.
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.
If you have the original TV box, please use it. You can also purchase TV storage/removal boxes from storage centres. If you don’t have a box and can’t source one, the removalist will use heavy-duty blankets to protect the TV.
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.

Yes, it can, as long as you notify us before booking your move.
We only work with experienced and reputable moving companies and its in their best interests to pack accurately in the trucks for two main reasons:
- It maximizes the space available.
- A tight well-loaded vehicle ensures less movement and motion on the road/rail.
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.
It is preferable to consider taking out an all-risk policy for your move. We offer two different options of coverage for your move, which include lowering the excess to obtain a lower premium or the ability to cover specific items of your move: https://www.muval.com.au/cover
