What is Melbourne to Gladstone 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.

Thanks Mitchell at Muval for organizing my removalists after another had cancelled on me at the last minute! Totally professional, quick & responsive. Would recommend to anyone planning their move!
They arranged removalists to cart my stuff from Sydney to the Central Coast. The whole process was quick and efficient and good value for money.
I moved home recently and needed removalists at fairly short notice, seven days later, to help us move within the Newcastle area. I called quite a few individual removalists and found it was hard to get someone at short notice. Muval was ea...

Shaz reached out promptly after completing the inventory list, got a great price all while using one of the best removalists available. Highly recommend Shaz and the Muval team.
Ive been speaking with Shaz and she's been more than helpful, definitely pleased with her communication and assistance through this time.
Muval is a professional company who managed our interstate move seamlessly, highly recommended.
Muval (and Bree's great communication) made it very easy to find and compare movers, and then book a mover for my require date. Would recommend using their service :)
Had a lady named Bree helping me she's based in qld she was great and worked well with my tight financial situation.
Sharon from Muval helped every step of the way from getting the cheapest possible quote to ensuring everything was included. She gave a personal touch and was very understanding of the emotional stresses with moving.
Sharon was fantastic, very understanding .Was very efficient in getting quotes that were very reasonably priced. She was also great at reducing the stress associated with trying to get removalists. Great person and service
Sharon was excellent, great service and made the first half of the move go extremely smoothly.
Thank you Bree for referring us to Dutchies removals. Your quick response was appreciated as I needed to arrange this move yesterday! Allan and the team were super efficient, they even put together a bed for me. Very impressed!
From the very first phone call, Grace has been exceptionally helpful and friendly. All the staff I have had the pleasure of meeting are so professional, that I will again use this service and I will not hesitate but to refer family & friend...

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.
No, The moving company you book will load and unload the truck with a minimum of two professional removalists.
Yes. This varies depends on which company you are using. Usually, the minimum charge is based on the cost of transporting 5 cubic metres.
This can be organised but will incur an extra charge.
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.
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.
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
If you have booked the shared truck option, then yes. If you have booked a premium option, then you will not be sharing the truck.
