What is 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.

Muval is a professional company who managed our interstate move seamlessly, highly recommended.
Easy to book and recommended a great Removalist to us
Dion helped me with the booking. Great service and accommodated my requests so well and made my life easy.
Moving house is one of the most stressful events in our lives. One piece of advice I can give you is to contact Muval and ask for Karla. She made my life so much easier with her knowledge, service, attention to detail, advice and kindness. ...

I couldn't have done my move without the prompt and organised assistance of Grant. He was very responsive and helpful with everything I needed. Thank you so much!
This review is based on the booking process only. Dion was very good to deal with and his English was clear and understandable making the process much more reassuring.
I could not recommend Sharon from Muval enough for organising a removalist. Sharon went above and beyond to get us a great price and was so easy to communicate with. She did not mess around and was able to organise everything for me so quic...
Grace was so helpful, provided options and was organised to follow up and make sure I was sorted for move, made it very easy. Highly recommend. The movers were great so a relief in a stressful process of changing house. Thankyou!
Great customer service. I received all of the information that I needed to make a booking. I recommend their services.

Dismantling and assembling the furniture are not included in our standard pricing but can easily be added to your moving service, just ask.
This can be organised but will incur an extra charge.
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.
To see the pricing, you will need to click on the link in your email. This will take you to our website where you can see your options.
It is preferred if you or your representative to be present at the pickup and drop off.
The first thing to do once you’ve moved into your new home is to check the house. Check out Chapter 4 of our moving house guide for a detailed outline of what to do after you move.
It depends on your volume and which carrier we are using for your move. Some companies can delay the delivery by a day for an extra fee, but others may not be able to if the truck is only passing by your address and must continue driving.
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.
