Read more233. Anyone needing to actually contact the company "after" they have taken your money, which incidentally can't be refunded to you because the only man who can authorise any payments happens to be conveniently "out of the country at the moment", I would advise to stop wasting your time dealing with recorded messages, hang-ups and no replies by contacting the man behind this operation directly via the contact given to the Australian Securities and Investment Commission as running the show. I wouldn't mind so much if the guys who did the heavy lifting and driving got the money, but to have someone running a website and have call-centre 3rd party people doing even the bookings, let alone just contracting out the move to some poor sod with access to a truck and no legal connection to the company, and to then have to fight them for a refund, or even to get a name of who your talking to when the job falls through is just not on in my book.- Rates and Fees

Only use this company if you are prepared to pay 35%+ more than the quote
This happened to me, after the goods were in transit. But what can you do. They aren’t prompt in returning calls or texts or emails- more a when it suits them situation. On the plus side goods were delivered within timeframe and undamaged. They are just hard to deal with. But getting small loads moved interstate leaves you few options.

Completely incompetent
I asked for a quote based on 8 cubic meters then booked and paid the deposit. I wanted to increase the amount by a bicycle and a bar fridge. These people then DOUBLED the quote saying I increased the space to 18 cubic metres. No refund of deposit given even went to NSW fair reading but they lied in their response.
THEY ARE COMPLETELY INCOMPETENT!!!

A TERRIBLE Experience - Do not use!
When I booked for my belongings to be transported from Brisbane to Melbourne I was told this would take 3 days. My belongings arrived over a month later. When I called to find out when my furniture would be delivered I was hung up on my the receptionist.
This is a terribly run, untrustworthy company that I definitely would NOT recommend not anyone!

Absolutely Terrible
Booked through this company for a Brisbane to Canberra move with a month of storage while we found somewhere to live. Circumstances changed and the move was to Brisbane. I arranged with the driver agreed on a time frame and left it at that. The furniture didn’t show up and there was no answer to any phone calls or emails. It wasn’t until several days with no contact and no furniture I decided to report the items as stolen. They finally got in contact with me and said they were organising it with the driver and they’ll contact me. There was no c...
Read moreontact at all. I reported the company to Fairfrade and the ACCC as well as to my credit card company (the payment method I used). Almost a month later I get an email saying the items would be delivered the next day, and I need to pay the invoice. There was no invoice and in the interim I had replaced the furniture because I genuinely believed I wouldn’t see it again. I couldn’t afford to pay the amount and was forced to give the company permission to dump my property. They did offer me an option to pay off the money if I gave them credit card details, but I was reluctant for obvious reasons. I have no idea what eventuated with my property and I am genuinely to scared to ask. Please don’t use this company, they are unprofessional, combatative and literally said, ‘we’ve washed our hands of this’. This whole mess could have been avoided with some communication but I was ignored for a month. Please avoid.- Verified
Untrustworthy Do Not Use
2 bedroom house furniture collected on 16/10/2017 from Coburg Victoria, allegedly delivered to Cairns on 28/10/2017 no contact from the company despite numerous phone calls and emails.
Anytime they were contacted they were fundamentally dishonest with details of arrival times.
Do not use they are appalling furniture still not delivered 14 weeks later.

Revolting, Dishonest and unprofessional Experience -
My move was a 1 bedroom apartment, interstate capital city to capital city.
This crew did not commit to confirmation quote. On paying the deposit, 24 hours after receiving the confirmation date and paperwork, only to be told the date was no longer available. When stating i had a confirmed quote, [name removed], the key phone contact started screaming at me and stated not her fault 'bookings team' got it wrong and they should not have sent out a confirmation. When requested to speak to the manager, was told NO, When ask for their names, wa...
Read mores told NO, when asked to get a call from senior staff, was told she can't do that. KEEP AWAY from these folks as they do not commit to timelines even when send you a confirmation notice, nor can you escalate complaints. A blessing in disguise i did not use them!- Verified

Very Rude service and breached agreed service timeline. Deposit not refunded. NO Response
In March 2017, I had contacted Backloading Removalist for interstate move and decided to pay them in full for the deposit (AUD $185) and the removalist fees ($802) in advance since their internet review seems positive and they are very responsive via emails and phone calls. Then the nightmare begins after payment made. Not only this company is not committed with their agreed moving date, they were extremely rude and would not commit to the pick up or delivery date. All they ask you is to wait for the phone call and the movers will pick up your ...
Read morestuff within the next 2 hours after phone call. My interstate move from Melbourne to NSW and the pick up date suppose to be on Thursday, 9 March 2017 but was changed to one day later, Friday, 10 March 2017. Then again, no phone calls, no email confirmation - nothing. I waited and waited..Until Saturday, 11 March 2017 at 8.00pm - someone called me stating they want to pick up my stuff. This is not what we have agreed. Therefore, they breached the agreed service dateline. After many emails attempt, I managed to recover my advance moving payment ($802) but not the deposit monies ($185). Backloading Removalist had decided to keep my deposit monies by stating that I did not agree with the pick up on the Saturday, 11 March 2017 after 8pm since they are now available. I was extremely upset with this type of business ethic and therefore, this matter has been reported to Victoria Consumer Affair. Personally, I have blacklisted them for future usage. I would really think twice before engaging them. Once monies is paid to them, I would say - Good luck, mate!Find out how Backloading Removalist compares to other Furniture Removalists

Be warned truck never even showed up
Worst Removalist we've ever dealt with. The truck never even showed up with no one bothering to even contact us and tell us they weren't coming. The truck didn't show up the next day or the day after that tor the day after that but they had our deposit. They didn't give a brass razoo that they had taken our money or that the new owners of our house were waiting to move in or that they cost us minimum three days pay waiting for them. They didn't even show the courtesy of letting us know when a truck would turn up. No communication what so ever. We had to chase them to find out what was happening and they could never tell us. Worst moving experience ever so you have been warned.

New owners very helpful - under new management 5 stars
I used BLP (under previous ownership) in February this year to move from Sydney to Sunshine Coast - the whole process was relatively smooth although I did have to pay extra on the day as I had amended the inventory and they said I had not advised them within the specified time (the overall space I used was still the same and I did give them the 5 days notice) However unpacking revealed missing and broken items - they were able to find one of the missing items which was returned to me but despite numerous back and forward emails they were not ...

The new owners have a totally new team and has been very prompt to try and resolve the issues inherited -they have resolve my issue within 24 hours!! i would not hesitate to contact Jonathan for help the next time I moveDon't use this service! They're cheap for a reason! Terrible service and waste of your time and mone
They are very nice, polite and provide a very competitive quote, but that's all before your actually pay them. After the initial payment, expect mostly troubles. Personally, I had a lot of problems with them: e.g. the pick up time was absolutely different from what they told me initially, the price was eventually $450 more than what I was offered in the initial quote etc. I'm trying to call/email this company for the last 3 weeks and no response what's so ever! These people are scam! Don't waste your time&money!

STRESS FREE EASY MOVE ALL BECAUSE OF BACKLOADING PROFESSIONALS
Lucy and Jarryd from BLP were fantastic. Customer service was great and Jarryd did a wonderful job moving our belongings from Brisbane to Sydney. I honestly couldn't recommend a better company. We have used removalists every 2 years moving for work and these guys are GREAT! We will use them again and I will be telling everyone about them! THANK YOU BLP!
Couldn’t be happier with “Backloading Professionals”.
The removalists Nate and Jarryd turned up to my house in Sydney on time. They were friendly and helpful, taking extra care with some items that have sentimental value as they belonged to my grandfather. Delivered to our new house in Brisbane within 24 hours, working under terribly windy, rainy conditions and never complaining once. Not a single item damaged and impeccable service. I will use them again and have no hesitation recommending them to my friends and family.

Impeccable service.
Best move ever!!
Because of these reviews I nearly made a huge mistake by not booking these guys. All of the bad reviews here, are about companies with similar names. “Backloading Professionals” are a family business who perform all of their moves in their own trucks. They have been so helpful to my mum & I through a very difficult time, making our move from the Gold Coast to Sydney so easy for us. I hope not too many people are getting confused by this! Thanks again Backloading Professionals team. Coral & Ivy
