What is Traralgon 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.

Rhea from Muval provided exceptional service. She was professional, helpful, and made the entire process stress-free. Her attention to detail and communication were outstanding. Highly recommend working with her for a five-star experience!...
After a few quotes which I sourced myself, I knew I was going to need help with my move. On appearance there seems to be a lot of scams and sharks operating in this industry. Muvals (Anthony in Brisbane in particular) exceeded my expectatio...
I used Muval for the first time and found Grace to be fantastic she was very helpful from the first point of contact and explained everything to me I would definitely use them again thanks to Grace

Mitchell was very responsive and helpful during the booking process. Consistently followed up and made sure we were set. Muval in general is a great place to start when planning a move. Weve used them twice now.
Perfect customer services especially Miss Rhea! Claer conversation and caring follow ups!
Hi both Muval and the back loaders they referred were excellent. They were very easy to contact with any concerns and the guys were super polite, in time and effective. I highly recommend this service.
Dion was so patient kind and helpful. He was amazing help in facilitating our move so last minute. The best!
Muval found me an excellent removalist. Given my last three were dreadful, I wasn't expecting any pleasant surprises. I guess because Muval can offer repeat business for the removalist companies, those companies are more likely to put in th...
Every time I need a mover, I call Jay of Muval to assist me. I don't need to call each of the movers to see which fits my date of move in/out and negotiate for the price. Jay does all that for me which saves me from stress. Easy to call and...

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.
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.
If your booking is a premium service, the company will be able to provide exact timing. If your booking is a shared option, then your schedule will be a window between two to seven hours on the move day.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
