What is Perth to 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.

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
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.
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.
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.
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!
It is preferable to consider taking out an all-risk policy for your move. We offer two different options of coverage for your move, which include lowering the excess to obtain a lower premium or the ability to cover specific items of your move: https://www.muval.com.au/cover
Dismantling and assembling the furniture are not included in our standard pricing but can easily be added to your moving service, just ask.

Why Moves Go Wrong
We found over 100 removalists online and analysed 1,652 of their public one-star reviews. Here is exactly why people have poor experiences moving, and what can be done to avoid it.
Moving to Western Australia
Relocating to Western Australia, specifically the vibrant city of Perth, can be both thrilling and overwhelming. Possibly the most isolated city in the world, moving to Perth offers a unique experience for those seeking a change.
Downsizing Australia
Across Australia, rising interest rates, higher living costs, and shifting lifestyle priorities are prompting more homeowners to trade in larger homes. But, which cities deliver the biggest financial gains when downsizing?
Moving House Checklist - Change of Address
You've got enough to remember and keep track of when you're moving house. The last thing you need is the stress of trying to remember all the places you need to update your address details.
Tips for setting up your home office
Setting up a home office can be a motivating time! You can pick out furniture that inspires you, organise your desk to suit your style and maybe even brighten up the space with a few plants.
