What is Newcastle 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.

I'm absolutely thrilled with the experience I had when getting a quote from Muval for my removal needs. The process was incredibly smooth and convenient. Their customer service was exceptional, taking the time to understand my requirements and providing me with a comprehensive and transparent quote.

Movers came right on time and were very efficient. They finished everything within time I expected. They are expensive but quality is of high standard too. Just make sure that you are prepared with everything when they arrive so things can ...
Great crew that came early and made a difficulty time easy for us. Glad I used MUVAL as the price was sharp and the whole experience was very seamless from start to finish. Highly recommend this service. Jamahl was a champion.
I cannot recommend Muval highly enough. I submitted the on-line form and ticked a couple of possible removalists and within a short space of time had Alec call me and offer to help. Well he certainly helped. He negotiated directly with the ...
Very efficient, customer service (thank you Grace!) was on point to arrange al details.

Alvin was very helpful, efficient and friendly. Thanks for all of your help in booking our move.
Worked with Mitch from Muval for a local move in Sydney back in 2022, and again in 2024 for an almost 2000km move in Queensland. He's been a star both times, quickly responsive and helpful as needed, and I'll gladly talk to him again when t...

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
Jess @ was wonderful with her customer service....simply outstanding!! Would highly recommend Muval to find the best fit for your next interstate or intrastate move.
This service took the guesswork out of selecting a removalist. We had a heavy table and desk to move. They found a provider that could do the job, and when that provider had to pull out they quickly found another. When there was a change of...
I have just put a booking through Wilson, he's been incredibly helpful, understanding and friendly throughout the all process. Outstanding customer service!
Dion was the best in handling my booking with Muval. I contacted him multiple times regarding my booking (cause when you're packing everything just multiplies). He was so kind and nice and his service is excellent. Thank you Dion!

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.
Depending on the destination and the state you are going to. Standard delivery times vary from one day to 21 days.
The cost for your local move will depend on how long your move takes. Some dishonest moving companies quote very cheap hourly or half-hourly rates to get your job, and then work slowly on the day or surprise you with additional charges in order to make more money.
Unless they are running a limited special offer, most honest removal companies need to charge at least $45 per half hour or more in order to pay their staff (two people usually come to load and unload the truck for you), pay their insurances, and make sure their trucks are serviced regularly.
Reading reviews is a great way to determine if a removalist is the right one for you. Platforms like Google, Product Review or Muval are great for this because they have built-in mechanisms to ensure reviews are from genuine people that have actually interacted with that business.
However, we advise to be cautions of moving companies with hundres of reviews and a perfect 5 star rating on these platforms as reviews unfortunately can be faked. Don't get us wrong: honest companies with a perfect 5 star rating do exist and they are excellent (we have a few on our platform!). But, given the nature of furniture removalist work, something, at some point, is bound to go wrong. Maybe the truck breaks down and is late for a job. Maybe someone accidentally trips and some items in a box are damaged. Whatever it is, accidents unfortunately do happen and these sorts of occassions rarely attract a 5 star rating.
Because of this, companies with a 4.5 or above rating are often just as good as a company with a perfect 5. So, we suggest, instead of looking for all 5-star reviews, take a look at a companies worst reviews and pay special attention to how they responded to the issue. Were they sympathetic? Did they respond promptly? Did they offer a resolution? Were they contactable for the customer to voice their concerns? These are the sorts of things that separate the best removalists from those who don't deliver a high level of service.

Each company has differing policies about notification before the pickup and delivery. Some companies can provide a time window on booking, others provide this the day before, while others will provide notice within an hour of their arrival.
It is preferred if you or your representative to be present at the pickup and drop off.
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
