What is Cairns to Sydney 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.

Our pick up and delivery from Perth to Adelaide went well without any issues. They were very prompt and communication was great!
— Andrea Mead
Great service, great communication with clients, good pricing comparisons and I highly recommend using this business.
Very easy to find a local removalist firm at a price that suited me. Careful and conscientious movers who made it easy for me. No damages or problems.
Muval was very easy to use to find and book a removalist, Mitchell was extremely helpful and obliging. The removalist chosen (no limits) were also fantastic!
If you need to move definitely try these guys first. Made the job so much easier. They were helpful and professional and the lady Melody that looked after us was very efficient and friendly.
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.
I got a great support from Lauren. It all went smooth, including the volume assessment which turned out being very accurately estimated. Thank Lauren and Muval !
Muval was a great service. Jay was really knowledgeable and the process was very smooth.
I would highly recommend and would personally use Murval again for any future moves. Kristy was a pleasure to work with and her professional approach of listening to my needs and the support both before and after the move was very appreciat...
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.
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...
Thank you Bree for referring us to Dutchies removals. Your quick response was appreciated as I needed to arrange this move yesterday! Allan and the team were super efficient, they even put together a bed for me. Very impressed!
Sharon was very helpful in finding a last minute removalist that suited the days we needed to get furniture interstate. She also found the best price for us. Definitely recommend Muval!
Mitchell was supportive in helping us to choose right removalist. He was patient with us during booking and followed up to make sure everything was as it was planned.
Shaz was extremely friendly and helpful in finding me the right removalist. Highly recommended
Shaz from Muval went above the average customer service to assist me to arrange my interstate move as well as to reassure me closer to the moving date. Informative professional and a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommend.
Professional, personal and excellent communication. Prompt and efficient service.
Highly recommended everything went very smoothly would recommend to anyone looking to move!!
The Murval team were excellent. We had a small backload to deliver from SE QLD to Sydney and they were fast, responsive and good value. They kept us fully informed about the pick-up of the load, during the transport and when it arrived at i...
Very happy with their professional and friendly service.
I would book with Muval again! We wanted to move out of Sydney and within the same week we booked and moved with Muval. This was an excellent and very friendly service, they found a moving company so quickly, the price was top and where oth...
Mitchell was so professional and found the right guys for my job. He was attentive to detail and it was a great success with less stress because of his choice. I would recommend him to anyone. I will be using him again.

To see the pricing, you will need to click on the link in your email. This will take you to our website where you can see your options.
The final payment must be paid five days before the nominated pickup date.
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.
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 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.
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.
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.
