Backloading truck on the street

Affordable Interstate Backloading Removalists

Move interstate for less with Instamove's professional shared-truck backloading service - affordable, reliable, and fully insured.

What is Backloading?

Backloading means your furniture and belongings share truck space with another move going in the same direction.
Instead of paying for an entire vehicle, you only pay for the portion you need - reducing costs while minimising empty-truck kilometres on the road.

It's an environmentally friendly and affordable way to move interstate.

Instamove offers backloading removalist services for both residential and small-business customers across Australia.

Backloading FAQs

Here are some helpful tips...
Is backloading suitable for small moves?
Absolutely. Backloading is ideal for smaller homes, apartments, or single-item moves when you don't need a full truck.
Will my belongings be safe during a backload?
Yes. Every backload includes professional handling, protective wrapping, and full insurance coverage.
Can I choose my moving dates?
We match you with the next available backload slot on your route and confirm the best delivery window.
Do you offer packing or storage options?
Yes. You can add packing services and short-term storage if you need extra time before delivery.
How far in advance should I book a backload?
The earlier the better, but we can often secure a spot with a few days' notice depending on route availability.
