Booking the moving day was easy with Muval - I just had to give them a rough idea of what I had, the day I wanted to move and the location from/to. Fraser and Ethan, from Muval, arrived on time and did a great job of loading my furniture fr...
Muval were great in arranging my move from Sydney to the Gold Coast. Very efficient, on time and most importantly all furniture arrived safely and was well looked after. Nothing to complain about! Highly recommended.
Such a great experience dealing with Muval and LJ in particular. No question too stupid, and I asked a lot of questions . and very very patient! Very prompt and thorough with all correspondence. Will absolutely use again and won't hesitate ...
Excellent service, very professional, punctual and very courteous. I thoroughly recommend Vince and his team for your move.
Shaz at Muval is a Goddess! Totally professional, warm and friendly. Prompt communication by email, msg and phone calls. We had a small glitch with our move …Not Muvals fault in any way…but Shaz worked miracles to get our final small lo...
Muval found us a great price for Brisbane to Melbourne move. The removalist caused some minor damage during the move in and didn’t reimburse us, despite chasing them up for six weeks. I advised Muval who took the matter seriously, and the...
Excellent customer service from Grant. Prompt and considered responses to all my questions and moving requirements. His liaison with our removal company is ensuring my move is organised and stress free. I will be very happy if the collectio...
Great! Jay was great, friendly and easy to deal with
Rhea was amazing to deal with, she was patient to understand my requirements and helped me find the right quote and movers. Very efficient and kept me updated throughout the booking process.
Incredible service! It has taken the stress out of things for me.
LJ helped me to look for removalists that suits the time for both of the building I am moving out from and the building I am moving into. It took almost 2-3 days to settle my case as the time window for the move in/out are limited. However,...
The staff were friendly and professional. Communication was fantastic and Liz, my assigned coordinator, was more than happy to take a heap of calls from me to help get my move organised
Although we didn't end up moving, we had organised quotes with Anthony. He was very helpful and respectful of our needs. Highly recommended.
Sharon was just amazing, I needed to move within a week as we only just got approved for a rental in another state and Sharon was able to send me multiple quotes and with some photos of the stuff I was moving she was able to get the price d...
AMAZING TEAM!! These guys have helped us to move mountains! Well… more literally our entire house interstate. But still, incredible work by Lachlan and Ben for helping us move to Queensland from Melbourne within a matter of days. We didn'...
Great service, really friendly and helpful :) Muval helped us find removalists in a hurry which took our lot of stress out of our moving day! Thanks so much!!
The experience of dealing with Muval was easy and smooth. I can't comment on the moving company itself yet because I haven't moved yet, but the booking process was incredibly easy. Thanks, Vince, for all your support!
Jade was so great. So flexible and sorting a tonne of last minute changes. Moving is so stressful and she handled it all. So happy and thankful.
I'm hoping that the move will go as smooth as the booking process with Jay was. He is an exceptional agent, patient and very helpful. If you're looking to book an interstate moving service, ask for Jay.
Shane and the team at Muval helped move my possessions from Sydney to Brisbane during the pandemic with very little stress and in a short timeframe. All my possessions were looked after and the communication was great. Most of all Shane had...
Jay was very helpful and assisted with getting me a better deal than he originally sourced. He had excellent communication and ensured I was well informed. Very good experience

If you need to change the delivery or pick up date, please advise the removalist as early as possible. They can sometimes accommodate changes and reschedule but this has a few variables.
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.

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.
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.
All furniture items will be wrapped in heavy removalist quilted padding to best protect your furniture; Some removalists will also use shrink wrap as well.
It is preferable to consider taking out an all-risk policy for your move. We offer two different options of coverage for your move, which include lowering the excess to obtain a lower premium or the ability to cover specific items of your move: https://www.muval.com.au/cover
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.
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
