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.

I have been in contact with Muvall and had amazing help from Shaz i honestly could not have done this move interstate without her, helpful, professional, friendly and reliable, so happy i had her to get me through this move.thank you
I have used Muval twice to identify the best removalists for moves interstate and intrastate - both times the services was fast, easy and took the stress of me having to weight up the various options. Highly recommend
Sharon has been an awesome help with my move. Very Responsive and Professional! Thank you so much!
Made everything easy when there seemed to be movers in short supply. Bree was great finding a service and The boys were great. And timely too - couldn't be happier.
Great communication, easy to deal with. Definitely recommend
Elly was very professional and friendly and she did find me a very good removalist which my husband and I were very happy about. I absolutely recommend anyone who needs a removalist to contact Muval.
Great service for organising suitable removalists. I spoke with Mitchell, who was very friendly, professional and helpful.

Shaz on behalf of Muval was able to very quickly assist with finding a removalist and quote to fit my specific circumstances and requirements. Definitely takes the stress out of moving, definitely would recommend!
I dealt with Sharon, who went out of her way to look after me. I would recommend Muval to anybody needing help to find a good removalist. I also saved a lot of money.
Bree at Muval made the booking and selection process of a suitable mover extremely easy for me. The company she recommended was very professional, responsible and reasonably priced. All of the administration works were done through Muval wh...
Muval helped with my recent move to Paddington NSW. Liz helped in locking something in for us within a 3 day window after our other removal company fell through. Super GM transport helped with our move, they were also great help.
Easy to book with less cost, more safe and no tension service. Get $100 cash back when I used myconnect to connect my utilities by Muval. So happy and recommend my friends to use Muval.
Great service, great communication with clients, good pricing comparisons and I highly recommend using this business.

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.
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.
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.
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.
Muval is a booking platform. We find reliable moving companies at a competitive rate. We help companies fill their space with customers that are happy to fit in with the truck schedule. It is called a shared load option.
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.
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.
Generally, it is around four porta-robes or 6 standard cartons for a wardrobe.
