What is Melbourne to Sunshine Coast 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 helped me remember everything that need doing with the move and helped me organize everything. They were very professional and helped take the stress out of moving.
— Rebecca Smith
The most thorough, considerate and professional movers I spoke to. I ended up going with a cheaper option who didn’t show up and were very hard to deal with so I recommend spending the extra money and going with these guys
We used Muval to find a removalist for our big move from Sydney to Brisbane. I'm glad we used them, they made the entire process seamless from finding few quotes to compare, booking a removalist, finding insurance and until the moving is co...

Kelvin @ Muval really took the stress out of finding a removalist and provided helpful and friendly service. I would use this company again.

Muval is responsive and professional with my various enquiries. They engaged O'clock Removalist for my move and everything went well and smooth as planned. Chargo and Leo did a great job.
100% would recommend. Stress and hassle free, they were helpful and friendly. They actually cared and took the time to do the job right. Thanks so much.
Really efficient, professional and friendly movers.
I was very impressed with the information, advice and service provided by Carina at Muval. I am still in the middle of moving but I know I can contact her at anytime if needed. It is so important to have this contact during a very stressful...
Jade was so great. So flexible and sorting a tonne of last minute changes. Moving is so stressful and she handled it all. So happy and thankful.
Great experience with Bree from Muval. She recommended the guys from Removal Brothers who were excellent. Prompt, careful, strong and nothing was too much trouble for them.
Great service. The customer service person was really helpful and everything was efficiently organised.
Sharon was so helpful and efficient, enabled me to book with no fuss at all. Highly recommend
I have booked a move through Jay who communicates well and explains the process, which helps to reduce the stress of moving.

When quoting on your job, we provide the name and reviews of the company that matches your inquiry. Although we vet every company on our system, we encourage you to do your own due dilligence on the company you choose.
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 earlier you book your move the more confident you can be that the date you wish to move will be available. However, the time in advance that you should book is heavily dependent on the time of year. Between October and March we recommend booking at least 3-4 weeks in advance of when you want to move. From March - September you can leave it a little later, booking 2-3 weeks out.
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.
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 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
Yes. This varies depends on which company you are using. Usually, the minimum charge is based on the cost of transporting 5 cubic metres.
