What is Backloading & What Are the Benefits?

If you’re looking for a way to transport your belongings without having to pay more than you need to, using a backloading removals service is highly recommended. In this blog post, Transcorp Removals & Storage explains what backloading is, how it works and some of the biggest benefits of using this service.

 

What is Backloading?

There are two types of backloading removals that moving companies offer.

The first is where removalists are assigned a moving job and use any remaining storage space in the truck for a second job. This is a good option when two different customers are moving near each other.

The second type of backloading is when a moving truck has completed the job of moving one customer’s belongings to their destination. Another customer's belongings can then be loaded onto the truck so it doesn’t need to make the return trip empty.

Why Do We Need Backloading Services?

 

Saves Money

Using backloading removals can save customers a great deal of money. For example, you may need a truck to haul your belongings, but you could have some leftover items that won’t fill an entire second truck. In such instances, placing these items on a truck containing another customer’s belongings will save you money, as you will only have to pay for the amount of space your items take up instead of the entire truck.

 

Flexibility

There’s a much higher degree of flexibility and convenience with backloading removals compared to standard moving services. This is because many moving companies haul backloads Australia wide on a regular basis and can assist customers at short notice.

 

How Much Does Backloading Cost?

The exact cost of using backloading removals will differ from job to job. How many items you need hauled, how much storage space in the truck is used, and how many kilometres the truck will be travelling, as well as other factors, will determine the total cost. No matter how much you’re quoted, the cost is guaranteed to be more affordable than hiring an entire truck.

Furniture was picked up when they advised it would. Shane in Qld couldn't have been more patient trying to contact my son to make the delivery. Thank you Shane for your perseverance.

I recently moved with Transcorp Removals, and I can confidently say they went above and beyond to make the experience smooth and stress-free. As a wheelchair user, I had specific needs and concerns, but their team was incredibly accommodating, professional, and attentive to every detail.

From start to finish, they handled everything with care, ensuring my belongings were safely transported and placed exactly where I needed them. The team was punctual, friendly, and highly efficient, making what could have been a stressful day so much easier.

I highly recommend Transcorp Removals to anyone looking for a reliable moving company, especially if you have accessibility requirements. Thank you for making my move a seamless and positive experience!

I couldn't rate Transcorp less than 5 stars. From first contact their customer focus really stood out, and it continued through our relocation and to top it off a personal phone call after all was completed just to check in. If you are looking to relocate and need top-class transport and service, don't hesitate to give the team at Transcorp a call.

Our move from Boronia to Parkville was very smooth and stress-free. The movers were very efficient and friendly. They went above and beyond to make sure all furnitures and boxes are delivered in good order. We're impressed!
Susan Levy
The whole team at Transcorp provided an excellent, efficient and welcoming service. The price was very competitive.
Roslyn Walker
The team arrived on time in Melbourne and, despite it being stinking hot, were lovely and efficient in loading and they wrapped the furniture well. A week later another friendly and efficient team delivered to me in Hobart at the arranged time. Good communication and and the price was 40% of what two other companies had quoted.
Nikki VR
Thank you for your excellent customer service, transport and communication with me during my major move from Melbourne to Qld. It was a very emotional time for me and Transcorp made the move so much easeir than I expected. Thank you to the drivers as well, so professional and friendly. Everything has arrived in good order and I thank you for that. I would definitely recommend Transcorp for anyone considering removalists.

Geoffrey Lindsay
Unfortunately I was unable to proceed with my freight booking due to circumstances beyond my control.
I DO however want to impress upon management how great my experience has been going through with my 'order' as far as I was able.
Katrina has been an awesome ambassador/representative for this business and I will most definitely be recommending Transcorp to any and all who may need your services.
Of course Transcorp will be my only call in the future for my own freight needs.
Katrina is thorough, polite, delivers excellent follow up contact, is clear about any and all details of the booking process and really just makes it all so easy.

THANK YOU Katrina!

Kind regards,
Geoffrey Lindsay.

Professional from the start ,arrived as scheduled and straight into loading the Van,never missed a beat.
Courteous to us and gentle to our furniture.

Brett Mallyon
Transcorp Removalists are by far the best removals company we have dealt with and we’ve had a few moves over the years. From our first phone call to Lilly in the office who could not be more helpful with our late notice phone call after many other companies had knocked us back because of the Christmas New Year holidays. The boys who did the move were amazing they were so professional it actually made it enjoyable a big thankyou to Phil and the team. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone considering a move.
Theresa Karwal
The two men that picked up the furniture were so lovely, especially as it was a dreadfully hot day. The were positive and friendly and got things done in a timely manner. Thankyou
leanne
Used Transcorp for a move from Canberra to Murrays Beach. Stan was an absolute gem assisting us in sorting our needs for the size of the move, the dates, insurance , and general handy hints! The uplift and the unload teams were fantastic, friendly hardworking blokes. And the best part - on setting up in the new house, no goods had been broken or damaged in any way. A thoroughly professional outfit, highly recommend Transcorp

I cannot recommend Transcorp highly enough. Nothing was too much trouble, from the moment i rang to enquire the sales rep Liliana did everything to accommodate me and make our move as smooth as possible. She walked me through step by step even assisting with taking my inventory over the phone as I walked from room to room to avoid having to fill out confusing and time consuming forms at a time I was already extremely overwhelmed. Liliana and Transcrop handled everything from furniture removal, pet transport, car carrier and even storage on the other end. Through the whole process, nothing was ever too much hassle and they worked with me and accommodated every change, concern and request. I cannot thank Stan, Liliana & Lynn enough for helping me, my family & fur babies to relocate, making what was an extremely stressful and worrying time, a breeeze. They took all the stress and worry off me and allowed me to just focus on myself and kids. Thank you Transcorp for helping us start our new life stress and worry free.

Craig and Useuf were wonderful.
Monique Ellis
Great removalists, both guys I had very fast and efficient.
Mary Lawler
I dealt with Lilly at Transcorp, who made the decision so easy for me to trust them with my possessions, every step of the way Lilly was on the other end of the phone. Thank you to Marty for moving heaven and earth to have my belongings to be delivered on the day I had requested...... OMG they are just wonderful 👍
Julie Matthews-Eva

Fotini was amazing arranging delivery of my new furniture. My deliver timeline was up in the air as I was waiting on the premises to be vacated. Fotini took it in her stride and kept in touch until a date was confirmed. Talk about taking the stress out of my move. Thanks once again.
Lee Crampton
When organising my uplift, l had lots going on but Katrina was so patient and we sorted it all including the change of uplift date due to me coming down with Covid.
I was grateful Adam and his offsider were patient and helpful removalists. They fitted my belongings in the truck like a jigsaw puzzle with protective covers on everything. Relatives were on hand to meet the delivery and direct what was required in the house and what was to be packed in the storage container. Nothing was too much trouble and the speed of the delivery was great. It enabled family to be there out of their working hours. Thanks all round for a less stressful move than l imagined. Five stars. Your staff take pride in what they do and it shows. Thank you.
Andrew Looker

Amaan Ullah
I used Transcorp to move my household goods from Melbourne to Hobart, and the service exceeded my expectations. The teams responsible for both pickup and delivery were highly professional, friendly, and efficient. From my experience, the key to a successful move is clear communication—if you provide all the necessary instructions and stay in touch, everything runs smoothly. Thanks again to the entire team for making the move hassle-free!
simon anderson
From the first call and through many inventory updates I always felt comfortable with the professional service. When it came time for the a actual collection of my parents deceased estate items the removalists assisted with advise on packing and protection to the antique items. Their expertise in loading the truck ensures all items arrived without so much as a scratch... even the china cabinet... so happy with my choice to use Transcorp... thank you so much
Leonie
Transcorp were excellent in moving my contents from Victoria to Queensland. The arrival time was spot on, packaging and unpacking was excellent and I would highly recommend Transcorp to anyone. All goods arrived in excellent condition. Well done.

Like to thank Transcorp and team, Rick and Sammy for a great, sensational, excellent job on moving my furniture and being so professional, looking after me. I would hire Transcorp again, you can see how perfectionist, experienced and knowledgeable they were. I was scared and freaking out that something was going to go wrong, and be damaged. In the pass had bad experiences with removalists but in the future Transcorp have showed, proven and delivered high professional standards. I please recommend everyone contacting and choosing Transcorp. Best, great wishes always Team Transcorp.
Raymond Winterfield
