What is Melbourne to Tasmania 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.

Super helpful. Took the stress out of moving. Organised reliable movers, movers had great communication. Prices were upfront. No hidden costs.
— Paul Clarke
When I contacted Muval at the first time, they were very responsive and helpful. Every single issue I had, they calmly sorted out and informed me about the process. Thank you Jamahl the staff member that supported me and Muval
Connected me with very professional, efficient, and cost effective movers. Would recommend.
Tyson from Muval was great to deal with. He was knowledgeable, prompt in his responses, and always very friendly to speak with. Thanks for your help, Tyson!
Vion provided a good service and addressed all my concerns effectively. Hoping for the final move to go well!
Great service, great communication with clients, good pricing comparisons and I highly recommend using this business.
I used Muval this week to organise to transport a few pieces of furniture between Australian cities. I am usually really anxious about these moves because they seem to big for most couriers and too small for furniture removalists. Muval gav...

Sharon was so helpful and efficient, enabled me to book with no fuss at all. Highly recommend
Sharon was really professional, she went above and beyond to make my move possible. She provided updates regularly and was always friendly.
I just used Muval to ship interstate and found them to be very helpful, flexible - and not incredibly expensive. I highly recommend giving them a call if you are researching your next move.
I called Sharon in an absolute flap yesterday because the people I had booked had changed the date on me for my interstate move. Sharon managed to not only calm me down, she managed to come back to me and helped me find a truck exactly what...

Easy to book, the customer serve rep, Mitchell, was really nice - answered all my questions and got me a quote in the same day. On the day, movers arrived on time and worked hard to get everything completed before the afternoon storm. Would...

The packing service is not included in our standard pricing. Please check with our support team to get a quotation.
Depending on the destination and the state you are going to. Standard delivery times vary from one day to 21 days.
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.
Yes, absolutely. Please mention this at the time of booking, as it may make a difference to the provider we match you with.
Some companies will have storage at the destination and some at the pickup. Some even include complimentary storage!
If you change your list of items or space required a week before your move, we can usually adjust the price accordingly. In some circumstances this won’t be possible depending on the booking volume and amount of change and notice provided.
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.
All furniture items will be wrapped in heavy removalist quilted padding to best protect your furniture; Some removalists will also use shrink wrap as well.
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.
