What is Melbourne to Mackay 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.

Mitchell at Muval provided a smooth and easy process, which made the stress of moving a little easier. Thank you.
Just want to Thank Alec for all his patience and help in assisting us in my daughter's move.

Muval were great to use and put forward strong options for our removalists.
I recently had the pleasure of dealing with Rhea from Muval's customer service team, and I must say, she provided an exceptional experience. Rhea was incredibly helpful, professional, and efficient in assisting me with my removalist booking...
Brilliant service. Timely, easy to organise and extremely competitive price wise Great attention to detail.
Kristy, well what can I say. Amazing, outstanding, professional, she is the worlds hardest worker. Please someone give her a pay rise!!
Hayley had helped so much with my move. As a busy company I expected to wait around for answers, instead she tries to get back to you about every small detail. I'm sure most of the office are professional and very helpful. Thanks!!
So happy with Muvals service during my move! Thank you to Mitchell and the team for all their help!
Overall I couldn't be happier with Muval and TMS. They gave me no issues at all and everything went smoothly. Their communication was great, always showed up on time, packed safely and efficiently, no damage to anything, delivered and unloa...
Have used Muval for two moves now and I find it easy to understand and one less thing to worry about. The team are supportive, responsive and professional. Thanks for your help, Grace.
Great experience through Muval, we spoke to Mitchell who recommended a company called AuServin that were great value and did a good job of our move from Brisbane to the Sunshine Coast
Lachlan went above and beyond to secure my move I changed my move date on more than one occasion and he showed patience and understanding He was so helpful and professional I would recommend Muval to anyone
Tanya was great and so helpful!!! Put me at ease for the move :)
Very easy to find a removalist at a much better price than I had been able to find elsewhere.
Awesome experience, they really went out of their way to assist and find me the right solution, and communicated with me all along the way.
Pretty much the best removalist I've had even if it was the only one, the price is reasonable at a 2 hours min, the removalist were prompt and would have had a hard time with bring things up a flight of stairs at my new unit but they did it...
10/10 Service from Karla. Took a load off my chest with going above and beyond to get a quote, and even check if one of the options moved vehicles.
Really easy and smooth to organise, Mitchell did all the hard work for me contacting movers and getting quotes so it was as simple as paying and then moving!
